One thing I would repeat in the docs here is what information actually comes from the user. Many people think a Cookie, since it's written by PHP, was safe. But the fact is that it's stored on the user's computer, transferred by the user's browser, and thus very easy to manipulate.
So, it'd be handy to mention here again that:
CGI parameters in the URL, HTTP POST data and cookie variables are considered "user data" and thus need to be validated. Session data and SQL database contents only need to be validated if they came from untrustworthy sources (like the ones just mentioned).
Not new, but I would have expected this info under this headline, at least as a short recap plus linlk to the actual docs.
ユーザーが投稿したデータ
多くの PHP のプログラムで最も脆弱な部分は、言語自体に起因するものではなく、 単にセキュリティを考慮して書かれていないコードの問題です。そのため、 指定したコードの部分の意味を常に時間をかけて吟味し、 予想外の変数が投稿された場合に有り得る損害を確かめる必要があります。
例1 危険な変数の使用
<?php
// ユーザーのホームディレクトリからファイルを削除します... または他の誰
// かのディレクトリかも?
unlink ($evil_var);
// 彼らのアクセスのログを書き込む.. または違うかも?
fputs ($fp, $evil_var);
// 何かちょっとしたことを実行.. または rm -rf *?
system ($evil_var);
exec ($evil_var);
?>
- このスクリプトは、意図したファイルのみを受け付けるか?
- 例外的なまたは意図したもの以外のデータにより実行することが可能 か?
- このスクリプトは意図した以外の方法で使用することが可能か?
- このスクリプトは、悪い意味で他のスクリプトと組み合わせて使用す ることが可能か?
- トランザクションは適切に記録されているか?
register_globals,magic_quotes, または他の便利な設定は、有効性、発 信元、指定した変数の値について混乱を生じる可能性があるため、設定を オフにしたいと思うかもしれません。error_reporting(E_ALL) モードで PHPを動作させた場合、確認または初期化する前に使用された変数に関し て警告を発生させることも可能です。(これにより、処理時に通常とは異 なるデータを防止することが可能です)

making sure your form is submitted from your page! Could also be adapted to url, by additing &token to the query string and checking this against session data(or what ever array you like) with $_GET, not that this string is randomly generated and stored. If you like you could build your own array to store the generated string if you dont want to use $_SESSION, say you could make yours like $tokens = array(), and in your easysecure class you store all the stuff in that array!
<?php
class easysecure {
var $curr_user;
var $curr_permission;
var $curr_task;
var $validpermission;
var $error;
function &setVar( $name, $value=null ) {
if (!is_null( $value )) {
$this->$name = $value;
}
return $this->$name;
}
function maketoken($formname, $id){
$token = md5(uniqid(rand(), true));
$_SESSION[$formname.$id] = $token;
return $token;
}
function checktoken($token, $formname, $id){
//print_r($_SESSION);
//echo ($token);
//if we dont have a valid token, return invalid;
if(!$token){
$this->setVar('validpermission', 0);
$this->setVar('error', 'no token found, security bridgedetected');
return false;
}
//if we have a valid token check that is is valid
$key = $_SESSION[$formname.$id];
if($key !== $token ){
$this->setVar('validpermission', 0);
$this->setVar('error', 'invalid token');
return false;
}
if($this->validpermission !==1){
echo 'invalid Permissions to run this script';
return false;
}else{
return true;
}
}
}
?>
<?php $userid = *** //make it what ever id you like ?>
<form name="newform" action="index.php" method="post">
<input type="text" name="potentialeveilfield" value="" size 30 />
<input type="hidden" name="token" value="<?php echo maketoken(newform, $userid); //$userid here could be user profile id ?>" />
<input type="submit" />
</form>
Now when processing the form... check the value of your token
<?php
//well you know the form name
if(!checktoken($_POST['token'], 'newform', $userid))
{ //failed
exit(); //or what ever termination and notification method best suits you.
//you could also design the class your way to get more accurate fail (error messages from the var)
}
//you can now continue with input data clean up (validation)
?>

Hi,
Just one little class I made to control user's submitted datas, I thought it could help some people with security.
And if anyone wants to improve it, I'd be glad you do so.
<?php
/**
* This program is under GNU GPL license.
*
* You can contact the author of this program at <ffmandu13@hotmail.com/>.
*/
//Defined regexps (you can add your own ones).
define('REG_DATE' , '([[:digit:]]{4})-([[:digit:]]{2})-([[:digit:]]{2})');
define('REG_DIGIT_SIGNED' , '^[-[:digit:]]+$');
define('REG_DIGIT_UNSIGNED', '^[[:digit:]]+$');
define('REG_PASSWORD' , '^[[:alnum:]]+$');
define('REG_TEXT' , '[[:graph:][:blank:]]+');
define('REG_WORD' , '^[[:alpha:]]+$');
//Controls contents of the $_REQUEST variable.
final class checkVar{
private $tmp; //Secured value of a $_REQUEST key.
//Check if the variable is set.
private function isSet(&$field){
if(!isset($_REQUEST[$field]))
throw new Exception("You forgot to fill the $field field.");
else
return true;
}
//Set $tmp and remove threatening characters.
private function removeCharsThreats(&$field){
$this->tmp = trim($_REQUEST[$field]);
$this->tmp = htmlspecialchars($_REQUEST[$field], ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8', false);
}
//Checks if the value is equal to 1.
public function securityBool($field){
if($this->isSet($field) && $_REQUEST[$field] != 1)
throw new Exception("Unallowed value in $field field.");
else
return true;
}
//Checks if the value is in the allowed ones list ($enum).
public function securityEnum($field, $enum){
if($this->isSet($field)){
$this->removeCharsThreats($field);
$tab = explode(',', $enum);
if(!in_array($this->tmp, $tab))
throw new Exception("Unallowed value in $field field.");
else
return (string) $this->tmp;
}
}
//Checks if the value is a numeric one and if it is in the given range.
public function securityRange($field, $range){
if($this->isSet($field)){
$this->removeCharsThreats($field);
$tab = explode('/', $range);
if(!is_numeric($this->tmp))
throw new Exception("Unallowed characters in $field field.");
elseif($this->tmp < $tab[0] || $this->tmp > $tab[1])
throw new Exception('Value must be in range '.$tab[0].'/'.$tab[1]." in $field field.");
else
return (int) $this->tmp;
}
}
/**
* Checks if the value respects the defined regexp,
* and if its length is not superior than the given maxlength.
*/
public function securityText($field, $maxlength, $regexp){
if($this->isSet($field)){
$this->removeCharsThreats($field);
if(!mb_ereg($regexp, $this->tmp))
throw new Exception("Unallowed characters in $field field.");
elseif(mb_strlen($this->tmp, ENCODING) > $maxlength)
throw new Exception("Too long string length for $field field.");
else
return $this->tmp;
}
}
}
?>
Here are some examples of how to use the public methods.
<?php
$checkVar = new checkVar();
$args = array();
//If $_REQUEST['bbexport'] is not equal to 1, throws a new Exception.
$args['bbexport'] = $checkVar->securityBool('bbexport');
//If $_REQUEST['id'] is not an unsigned integer and/or has more than 4 digits, throws a new Exception.
$args['id'] = (int) $checkVar->securityText('id', 4, REG_DIGIT_UNSIGNED);
//If $_REQUEST['orderBy'] is not equal to 'date' or 'id' or 'name', throws a new Exception.
$args['orderBy'] = $checkVar->securityEnum('orderBy', 'date,id,name');
//If $_REQUEST['ratio'] is not a numeric value (integer or float) and is not between 0 and 10, throws a new Exception.
$args['ratio'] = $checkVar->securityRange('ratio', '0/10');
?>
