in reply to Upload security question

Hi, lots of replies! thanks all.

I have gotten to the point where anytime I deal with placing inputted form values inside a database, I will use placeholders.

As for the uploaded files, my process is to save and renaming them, and after, delete right away (So I guess the execute permissions code wouldn't matter after-all).

I'm basically parsing line by line and each line will be assigned to a variable where I'll be passing to HTML::Template to populate the form.

I also noticed that the max file size will only be 7,800 byte's (~7.6kb). Would a CAPTCHA just be annoying to the user, and I would not need it since a 7800 kb upload post will not really cause too much of a DoS attack??
