Tell me, are you taking user input in some form and expecting it to match
the name of a thumbnail file on the server?

If so, what controls are you placing on that user input to ensure that a
valid file name is requested?

Note that the *only* validation that you can rely on is validation
carried out by the server after the request is received from the viewers
browser.

Maybe:

<?php
if (is_set($image) && $image) {
$imgFileName = "/home/myaccount/www/thumbs/$image";
if (file_exists($imgFileName)) {
if (getimagesize($imgFileName)) {
// nothing to do here
else {
$image = "noimage.gif"; // file exists but not an image
}
} else {
$image = "noimage.gif"; // file doesn't exist
}
} else {
$image = "noimage.gif"; // $image was not defined or was false
}
$height = "75"; // always do this
?>

would better meet your needs?

However, from the manual:

"If accessing the filename image is impossible, or if it isn't a valid
picture, getimagesize() will generate an error of level E_WARNING. On
read error, getimagesize() will generate an error of level E_NOTICE."

So using getimagesize to determine if it really is an image will always
generate a warning message if it's not an image file. This means that the
above code will only prevent any "file doesn't exist" related warnings,
and not "file isn't an image" related warnings.
