* This is the security library for Dokeos.
*
* This library is based on recommendations found in the PHP5 Certification
* Guide published at PHP|Architect, and other recommendations found on
* http://www.phpsec.org/
* The principles here are that all data is tainted (most scripts of Dokeos are
* open to the public or at least to a certain public that could be malicious
* under specific circumstances). We use the white list approach, where as we
* consider that data can only be used in the database or in a file if it has
* been filtered.
*
* For session fixation, use ...
* For session hijacking, use get_ua() and check_ua()
* For Cross-Site Request Forgeries, use get_token() and check_tocken()
* For basic filtering, use filter()
* For files inclusions (using dynamic paths) use check_rel_path() and check_abs_path()
*
* @package dokeos.library
