perfectly safe. If you are a careful IT manager with free
time you can harden it into a chroot and if you are REALLY paranoid
you can disable uploads altogether and link images in some other way
from external URLs.
that's a good point... we can't upload images at the moment...! is this
a difficult thing to change? (I may not bother so if it's complex, don't
worry about it...). I will have to fight to get direct access to the
software and am not experienced in tinkering with it anyway...!
Hello,
I will recommend chroot to add some safety. As for uploads, should be as
easy as:
$wgDisableUpload=false; // in your LocalSettings.php
Be sure that the upload directory is writable by your web server.
cheers,
