Since we are testing the GET parameters, this might be good to test: curl http://localhost/phpmyadmin/?`php -r 'for ($i=1; $i < 1000; $i++) {echo "x" . $i . "=$i&";}'` or curl http://localhost/phpmyadmin/?`php -r 'for ($i=1; $i < 1000; $i++) {echo "x" . $i . "=$i&";}'` both return "URI too long". Note that I am testing with an unpatched PMA. Marc

[Phpmyadmin-devel] MYSQLI_CLIENT_SSL

by Marc Delisle

Hi, I wonder if $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl'] = true; being true by default will not cause us some problems. https://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1683182&forum_id=72909 http://ca.php.net/mysqli MYSQLI_CLIENT_SSL Use SSL (encrypted protocol). This option should not be set by application programs; it is set internally in the MySQL client library. =========== "should not be set by application programs": this is us, no? :) They don't mention this warning for MYSQL_CLIENT_SSL.
