Description:
------------
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=39863 got fixed so since php 5.3.4, the file 
system functions seems to be immune to the null byte poisioning.
which means the the http://php.net/manual/en/security.filesystem.nullbytes.php 
page needs a little bit refactoring (or maybe a complete removal) as the example 
there isn't vulnerable anymore.

Has it been completely fixed?
There is a note saying this bug still exists with the include and require functions.

Yes, that include/require have been also fixed back then; they
just don't report anything about an invalid path.
