Nov 21, 2014 at 19:01 comment added Qwertiy As for me (I don't know php), the @ symbol is strange as I see it here for the first time. And when the other code seems correct, this place causes some sense of a strange thing.

Mar 17, 2014 at 8:49 comment added Mohammed Joraid Just wait until PHP introduce this function for real as an Alias to "unlink". Similarly to is_int() and is_integer() and this malware will be the real troller.
Mar 16, 2014 at 2:54 comment added Brendan Long @KonradRudolph A function named delete to delete files is completely believable in PHP. The only thing that's not believable is that if it was real, there would be 3 or 4 other ways of doing it and all but the one with the weirdest name would have serious security flaws.
Mar 11, 2014 at 14:21 comment added Konrad Rudolph I think using a random non-existent function is a tad obvious (delete to delete files? There’s no reason to assume that’d fool anybody). How about unlⅰnk instead (which uses U+2170 instead of “i”)?
Mar 11, 2014 at 13:47 comment added Ismael Miguel Just read the 1st constant's definition: php.net/manual/en/errorfunc.constants.php
Mar 11, 2014 at 11:30 comment added Cthulhu @IsmaelMiguel (except fatal errors) not true, it's exactly fatal error which is being suppressed in this case.
Mar 10, 2014 at 23:05 comment added Ismael Miguel The @ before delete suppresses all errors (except fatal errors). It's the same as error_reporting(0);delete();error_reporting(E_ALL);.
Mar 10, 2014 at 22:53 comment added Zoey See, I thought the reason the errors would be ignored and execution would continue was because it was PHP.
Mar 10, 2014 at 19:14 comment added basher @user11153 got trolled.
Mar 10, 2014 at 16:03 comment added TimWolla @Erti-ChrisEelmaa This is correct: php > delete('/tmp/file'); PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function delete() in php shell code on line 1
Mar 10, 2014 at 13:15 comment added Erti-Chris Eelmaa ^ as far I understand: there is no delete() function, the manual just says that this is "fake-entry" for anyone looking the right function(unlink). That does not mean there is some kind of "automatic" redirection in PHP.

I love the way PHP formatters always treat `delete()` as a real command :-)
