Can anyone recommend a good file uploader script? Looking for password protected access (I can use .htaccess as long as that won't break the script), multiple file upload, and directory listing of uploaded files.
I'd stay away from celerondude's script. It hasn't been updated in several years and has several known security vulnerabilities possibly leading to full root on the server it is installed on (depending on the security of the server). You'd be amazed how many script kiddies and bots hammer my webhost daily looking for the script and its vulnerabilities.
most of the security vulnerabilities i'm aware of were php issues more than celerondudes scripts issues, which have long since been fixed. if you're running a server from 2005, you might want to check it... otherwise, I've had the script going on my website for a long time and outside of the issues 6+ years ago, havn't had any problems since.
back then i got rooted a few times but i blame one of the random dudes on genmay with cheap hosting co's and i lost nothing in the process, just script kiddies defacing the main page (but where nice enough to create a backup).
I consider it a pretty low risk these days.
are you using the 6.1 version that's still freely available, or one of the later versions that appear to be gated?most of the security vulnerabilities i'm aware of were php issues more than celerondudes scripts issues, which have long since been fixed. if you're running a server from 2005, you might want to check it... otherwise, I've had the script going on my website for a long time and outside of the issues 6+ years ago, havn't had any problems since.

how can they expect something from a free script?
