Re^2: File::Find untaint in taint-mode under Win32

Yeah, and if you had read the code, you wouldn't have posted a useless comment.

Anyway, the problem is that the default untaint_pattern is set to qr|^([-+@\w./]+)$| and the cwd on windows most likely contains :, like in C:/some/path.

So, you have to fix the untaint pattern using something like: untaint_pattern => qr|^([-+@\w./]+)$|

In the context of your answer the `untaint_pattern` should probably be: `untaint_pattern => qr\|^([-+@\w./:]+)$\|` [download] Or to allow for Windows style directory separators as well (is that necessary?) something like: `untaint_pattern => qr\|^([-+@\w./:\\]+)$\|` [download] Anyone see any omissions or gotchas here for Windows or other platforms? -- John.

I don't understand the purpose, why not `/(.*)/` ?	[reply] [d/l]

I don't know. A similar regex is used on Mac OS according to the docs: The default untaint_pattern ... on Mac OS is set to `qr\|^(.+)$\|` -- John.	[reply]
