Security fix to captcha checking example #5

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
I suggest to check if $_SESSION['captcha'] is not empty. Because current
example allows surpassing captcha when both session and request variables
are empty.

So fixed example should be:

if (!$_SESSION['captcha'] || (strtolower(trim($_REQUEST['captcha'])) !=
$_SESSION['captcha'])) {
    return "Invalid captcha";
}
