New version of SquitoGallery is under way. I haven't made a release in 5years so I thought I should for personal satisfaction. So much has changed since my first releases that's I'm ashamed to have ever produced such atrocities. If for whatever reason someone is actually using that code they should seriously have their head examined.
For as long as I can remember I have coded with my sites set to register_globals=off. And because of that I had a major vulnerability in my Squitogallery 1.x releases. I'm glad I wasn't using it when the flaw was found. I don't know how many machines got pwned. Total I think I had about 1000 downloads. Not much when you compare it to the total number of people online. It was an personal accomplishment at the time. I had absolutely no coding experience except for in the classroom. BTW they don't teach you about security in the classroom. For me this is something I had to learn the hardway. I'm glad that I did. It has opened my eyes on the necessity for input verification. No matter where it's coming from. I'm not perfect and as Steve Gibson says "Code wants to be wrong". I try to be more security conscience about my coding. Always doing type checks etc.
Anywhoo. I hope to have a new version released soon. I usually do dev live on the demo so people may see it break. Till I get something about release ready. later.
