</form>
and this the function for registration
function insertData($arr,$files){
$username =$arr['userName'];
$pass =$arr['userPassword'];
$realname =$arr['userRealName'];
$email =$arr['userEmail'];
$country =$arr['country'];
$gender =$arr['gender'];
$dob =$arr['userDay'].'-'.$arr['userMonth'].'-'.$arr['userYear'];
if(self::userNameExit($username) != "not_exist"){
echo "<script>document.location.href='".HTTP_PATH."register.php'</script>";
exit();
}
if(self::userEmailExist($email) != "not_exist"){
echo "<script>document.location.href='".HTTP_PATH."register.php'</script>";
exit();
}
require_once(COMM_PATH."DatabaseManager.php");
$db= new DatabaseManager();
$emailcode = rand().time();
$sql = "Insert into users(username,pass,realname,email,country,dob,gender,lastlogin,register_date,email_varification,email_code)values('".$username."','".md5($pass)."','".$realname."','".$email."','".$country."','".$dob."','".$gender."', now(), now(),'n','".$emailcode."')";
$result = $db->executeUpdate($sql);

if(isset($files['userAvatar']['name']) && $files['userAvatar']['name'] !=""){
$nameOfImage = time()."_".basename($files['userAvatar']['name']);
$path = USER_IMAGE_UPLOAD_PATH.$nameOfImage;
if(move_uploaded_file($files['userAvatar']['tmp_name'], $path)){

$db->executeUpdate($sql);
if(isset($arr['promotion']) && $arr['promotion'] == "promotion_yes"){
self::notificationSubmit($user_id,$email);
}
}
return $user_id;
}
}
I want to know what is wrong with me , the business is going down every day the site hacked
UPDATE ::
if(isset($files['userAvatar']['name']) && $files['userAvatar']['name'] !=""){
$nameOfImage = $files['userAvatar']['name'];
$path = USER_IMAGE_UPLOAD_PATH.$nameOfImage;
$fileInfo = new finfo();
$allowedMIMETypes = ['image/bmp', 'image/gif', 'image/jpeg', 'image/png']; //the most common image MIME types, you can add more if you want
if(in_array($fileType = $fileInfo->file($nameOfImage, FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE, $allowedMIMETypes))){
if(move_uploaded_file($files['userAvatar']['tmp_name'], $path)){
$sql="UPDATE `users` SET `image` = '".$nameOfImage."' WHERE `Id` =".$user_id;
$db->executeUpdate($sql);
if(isset($arr['promotion']) && $arr['promotion'] == "promotion_yes"){
self::notificationSubmit($user_id,$email);
}
}
return $user_id;
}
else {
die("check you reg");
}
return null;
I have made the code like that but it let user register but with no photo
Use this to check the MIME-type of the file:
$file = $files['userAvatar']['name'];
$fileInfo = new finfo();
$allowedMIMETypes = ['image/bmp', 'image/gif', 'image/jpeg', 'image/png']; //the most common image MIME types, you can add more if you want
if(in_array($fileType = $fileInfo->file($file, FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE, $allowedMIMETypes)){
//the file is an image
} else {
//file doesn't have a whitelisted MIME-type
}
Update: If you want to prevent users from registering without an avatar, simply put the code I gave you before you insert the user into the database. Your entire function would become something like this:
function insertData($arr,$files){
$username =$arr['userName'];
$pass =$arr['userPassword'];
$realname =$arr['userRealName'];
$email =$arr['userEmail'];
$country =$arr['country'];
$gender =$arr['gender'];
$dob =$arr['userDay'].'-'.$arr['userMonth'].'-'.$arr['userYear'];
if(self::userNameExit($username) != "not_exist"){
echo "<script>document.location.href='".HTTP_PATH."register.php'</script>";
exit();
}
if(self::userEmailExist($email) != "not_exist"){
echo "<script>document.location.href='".HTTP_PATH."register.php'</script>";
exit();
}
//*************
if(!isset($files['userAvatar']['name']) || empty($files['userAvatar']['name'])){
//no file was uploaded, give some kind of error message
}
$fileInfo = new finfo();
$allowedMIMETypes = ['image/bmp', 'image/gif', 'image/jpeg', 'image/png']; //the most common image MIME types, you can add more if you want
if(!in_array($fileType = $fileInfo->file($nameOfImage, FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE, $allowedMIMETypes))){
//the uploaded file wasn't recognized as an image, give some kind of error message
}
*************//
require_once(COMM_PATH."DatabaseManager.php");
$db= new DatabaseManager();
$emailcode = rand().time();
$sql = "Insert into users(username,pass,realname,email,country,dob,gender,lastlogin,register_date,email_varification,email_code)values('".$username."','".md5($pass)."','".$realname."','".$email."','".$country."','".$dob."','".$gender."', now(), now(),'n','".$emailcode."')";
$result = $db->executeUpdate($sql);
$user_id = $db->lastInsertId();
self::autoFriends($user_id);
self::sentMessage($user_id,$username);
insertStatusNow($user_id,"user");
$nameOfImage = time()."_".basename($files['userAvatar']['name']);
$path = USER_IMAGE_UPLOAD_PATH.$nameOfImage;
if(move_uploaded_file($files['userAvatar']['tmp_name'], $path)){
$sql="UPDATE `users` SET `image` = '".$nameOfImage."' WHERE `Id` =".$user_id;
$db->executeUpdate($sql);
if(isset($arr['promotion']) && $arr['promotion'] == "promotion_yes"){
self::notificationSubmit($user_id,$email);
}
}
return $user_id;
}
Furthermore, I saw that you handled errors by redirecting the user to the registration page using JavaScrip (not even using the PHP header() function). This isn't very elegant, and the user won't know what they did wrong, so I suggest you return an error message from the function instead, which is then echoed on the registration page
So what you want is that people only upload images and not PHP script. Well the answer to that is simple, check the file extention. But that being said there are methods like injecting %00(Not sure about the opcode) to fool the PHP server. It is better to get an existing library that checks that for you. Once that is done, in order that the uploaded script is not executes, don't give it executable right. That way even if an attacker uploads php file, It won't be processed by your server. And if you check the extention properly, When the attacker suppose uploads c99 shell, will only see a broken image in upload path and not the actual shell page, because it is being though of an image by the web server
