FFI & Security

Morning all, Recently we voted on classification criteria for security bugs [1], we include under "not an issue" any issue that "requires invocation of specific code, which may be valid but is obviously malicious". I would like to add an explicit clause under the "not an issue" section for anything related to FFI. It hardly seems worth it to run an RFC, although I'll be happy too if there is a single dissenting voice. If there are no objections, I'll modify the document 7 days from today (Monday 21st October). Cheers Joe [1] https://wiki.php.net/security

I agree, most of the issues with regard to FFI would not qualify as security issues, and we may as well state that explicitly.

What is the status here? It seems the security classification document has not yet been updated. Cheers, Christoph
