Comment 1 Kurt Seifried 2011-09-26 18:18:18 UTC
NOTABUG: The Fedora packages install php-pear-Auth-OpenID to /usr/share/pear/Auth_OpenID/ outside the webroot and there is no mapping/etc. to expose that directory.

Also it appears this bug was originally reported by yehg.net to Google, Yehg sources:

http://yehg.net/lab/pr0js/advisories/path_disclosure/vanilla-2.0.16
http://yehg.net/lab/pr0js/advisories/path_disclosure/statusnet-0.9.6

indicate that some PHP apps ship a static copy of php-pear-Auth-OpenID within their files and expose them within the webroot.
