Subject: PHP dlopen() -> Fun with apache (and other

Hello,

well you describe nothing more than the documented functionality
of the dlopen() call. You can also have a lot of fun with loading
linux kernel modules if your admin allows users to load kernel moduels.
And stealing SSL private key from apache memory is not really a
challenge... You only need to search for some signature in memory 
and "steal" the next few byte behind it.
