The path as passed in the fragment request data structure was used verbatim in the dispatcher and other locations. This possibly allowed requests to walk around ACLs by requesting '/some/safe/place/../../../dangerous' as a fragment.

NAME

Jifty::Handle -- A database handle class for Jifty

DESCRIPTION

A wrapper around Jifty::DBI::Handle which is aware of versions in the database

METHODS

new PARAMHASH

This class method instantiates a new Jifty::Handle object. This object deals with database handles for the system. After it is created, it will be a subclass of Jifty::DBI::Handle.

canonical_database_name

Returns the canonical name of the application's database (the actual name that will be given to the database driver). This name is a lower-case version of the Database argument in the Database section of the framework config.

For SQLite databases (where the database name is actually a filename), this also converts a relative path into an absolute path based at the application root.

connect ARGS

Like Jifty::DBI's connect method but pulls the name of the database from the current Jifty::Config.

check_schema_version

Make sure that we have a recent enough database schema. If we don't, then error out.
