Bug Type: *Directory/Filesystem functions
Operating System: RH Linux 8
PHP Version: 4CVS-2005-01-30 (stable)
New Comment:

I don't think this is a bug in PHP, it's a questionable design feature
of IE. PHP is just returning the unmodified filename supplied by the
client as part of the upload process. If you wish to obtain just the
filename you should probably use basename($_FILES['userfile']['name']).

Description:
------------
While uploading a file using a script the $_FILES['userfile']['name']
variable returns the entire upload path, but only when using IE. The
issue does not show up using Firefox.

Using IE:

$_FILES['userfile']['name'] -> C:\Do***ents and
Settings\RARankin\Desktop\groupe_alliance_2004_gb. jpg

Using Firefox:

$_FILES['userfile']['name'] -> groupe_alliance_2004_gb.jpg

Didnt happen before updating to 4.3.10+, I'm using a dev version due to
compilation errors w/ GD in *.10.

Error showed itself w/ phpBB's attachment modification.
