I am writing to report a possible security hole.

The problem is that when I run the phpinfo(); function PHP outputs it's cinfiguration info but there is a picture of a cocasion male with pencils sticking out of his mouth in the upper right hand corner. 

Please let me know if this is a problem with my system security or if the problemis with the PHP program.

Eric

What date is it today?

You are not running php 4.1.2 but php 4.0.1pl2. Your version of php is very old and remotely exploitable.

Anyway, the picture is NOT a security hole, it's an easter egg. But sesser@php.net is right, you're running a very old version of PHP. Upgrading is strongly recommended.

the server that I first noticed this image on is running 4.1.2. Today is April fools. None the less I found the image very distaste full and unprofessional.

Oh, lighten up!  But if you really have such a problem with it, turn it off via the expose_php directive in your php.ini file.  It's not like we embedded an entire 3-d maze game in your spreadsheet like a certain company from Redmond did.

Hmm. A picture of Betty Boop saying "Happy April Fools Day" would have been easier to swallow. But guy!!!!!

:)
