Suhosin?

I came across a post from 2010 which stated there were some issues with Zencart and Suhosin, particularly with suhosin.session.encrypt being switched on, i just upgraded everything on my server today and now have PHP 5.3.6 and MySQL 5.1.56 and also installed Suhosin as an additional security measure, its installed with default settings.

Everything seems to be working fine but i just wonder if i can ask if there are any known issues with Suhosin and the latest edition of Zencart. ?

If there are issues i can switch Suhosin off although more security is good, i think anyways.

Re: Suhosin?

The only complaint I've heard of lately is that some people using suhosin can't use the whos-online page in the admin to snoop in their customers' carts while they're shopping. Naturally, that's a direct result of the session content being encrypted, which of course is the whole purpose behind using suhosin in the first place.

I'm not aware of any other side-effects of using suhosin.
