Dear Benji,

I think I am, good sir. Never said I know it all and am competent. But
thank you for sharing your wisdom with me anyway!

With kind regards,
Z.

Actually, adding input sanitisation really wouldnt increase the code size
that much. Are you just incompetent?

Dear list,

Well, I suppose this had to be a proof-of-concept piece of code to
demonstrate how port scanning can be done in PHP, not a production-grade
software. Adding input sanitization would increase the code size by a lot
and obscure the concept somewhat (not that there is much to be said anout
the concept though). Think we can give the dude some discount for that.

Nevertheless, seeing something like this coming from "Certified Ethical
Hacker and Security + certified" makes me doubt the worthness of those
certificates. Could be nice to know the exact naming of those certificates
to properly disregard them in the future.

With best regards,
Z.

Finding the vulnerability in this code is left as an exercise to the
reader.
