SquirrelMail and PHP 4.4.1 issues

[dannygoh]

Hi,

I'm having diffucultty in accessing squirrelmail on my system and I found out the problems. The problem is i do not know how to patch using the patch on squirrelmail website. Can someone guide me,

PHP developers released PHP 4.4.1 version on 2005-10-31. Security fixes introduced bug, which affects three SquirrelMail functions. If your SquirrelMail install does not use server side sorting, PHP bug can create infinite loop in message display. If you are using PHP 4.4.1, you should update it to 4.4.x-dev or apply patch.

Downgrade to PHP 4.4.0 solves the problem. We have the same problem and we have downgraded to PHP4.4.0

To do that, go to /usr/local/directadmin/customapache/

Edit your build file and change PHP_VER=4.4.0 instead of 4.4.1

type ./build all

and if you require zend, type ./build zend

restart apache by service httpd restart

you are done.

Try downgrading to PHP 4.4.0:

cd /usr/local/directadmin/customapache
./build clean
perl -pi -e 's/4.4.1/4.4.0/' build
./build clean
./build update_data
./build php n
