Bug in /web/generate/ssl/

The error might be in
I have identified a bug that causes the SSL certificate generation to fail. The bug lies in the following line of code:
Code: Select all
exec (VESTA_CMD."v-generate-ssl-cert ".$v_domain." ".$v_email." ".$v_country." ".$v_state." ".$v_locality." ".$v_org." IT '' json", $output, $return_var);
The issue might be with the VESTA_CMD constant, which is not defined in the provided code. This constant is likely meant to hold the command for generating the SSL certificate. Without the correct value for VESTA_CMD, the exec function will fail to execute the command, resulting in an error.
The cause of the bug is the missing definition of the VESTA_CMD constant. This constant should be defined with the appropriate command for generating the SSL certificate. However, since it is not defined in the provided code, the exec function fails to execute the command, leading to an error.
one example would be to define the VESTA-CMD constant
Code: Select all
define('VESTA_CMD', '/path/to/v-generate-ssl-cert');
Replace /path/to/v-generate-ssl-cert with the actual path to the command for generating SSL certificates in your environment.
Once you have defined the VESTA_CMD constant, the exec function will be able to execute the command successfully, and the SSL certificate generation should work as expected.
im not familiar with how all code in myVesta works...but this might be an improvement or not..

Hello myVesta,
can you check this bug and the other bug reports submitted by gathlete with the code fixes and give a reply?
Thank you.
best regards

All he writes is ChatGPT (or Gemini) responses and makes no sense, everything works as it should. It's enough that he didn't provide a single error log file.

You mean gpt and then of course the question is which version. The same applies to Gemini, there is Gemini 1.5 Pro etc. The ki models are not that bad but myvesta should be the judge. In general, it is not wrong to check and improve the entire code with gpt 4 or Claude 3 Opus. I checked the index.php with GPT-4-0125-preview and the following came out:
Here are some errors and suggestions for improvement for the provided PHP code:
1. Initialization of $errors:
- The variable $errors is used before it is initialized. This could lead to an error when attempting to add elements to a non-existent array. Add an initialization at the beginning:$errors = array();
2. Inconsistency in the use of POST data:
- After validating the inputs and checking for errors, you convert the inputs with escapeshellarg(). However, you then reassign the original POST values to the variables before executing the command. This makes the previous protection by escapeshellarg() ineffective. Remove the reassignment of POST values after protection.
3. Checking the exec function:
- The exec function still has the incorrect quote issue with json. Correct this to ensure the command executes properly.
- The corrected command should look like this:exec(VESTA_CMD . "v-generate-ssl-cert " . $v_domain . " " . $v_email . " " . $v_country . " " . $v_state . " " . $v_locality . " " . $v_org . " IT '' 'json'", $output, $return_var);
4. Error message for failed command execution:
- The error message uses __('Error code:', $return_var), which probably does not deliver the intended format since __() likely only expects a string for translations and does not support formatted output. Check the implementation of this function or adjust the error message.
5. Redundant setting of session variables:
- You set $_SESSION['error_msg'] and then unset it right away before rendering the page. This could result in no error message being displayed. Remove the unsetting of the session variable or move it after the page is rendered.
6. Security: Validation and sanitization of inputs:
- There is no explicit validation or sanitization of inputs before they are used, other than using escapeshellarg(). Consider whether additional security measures are needed, especially when using user inputs in database queries or other critical operations.
Here is an example section of the improved code:
$errors = array();
if (empty($_POST['v_domain'])) $errors[] = __('Domain');
if (empty($_POST['v_country'])) $errors[] = __('Country');
// Additional validations...
// Check for errors
if (!empty($errors)) {
// Error handling...
}
// Protect input
$v_domain = escapeshellarg($_POST['v_domain']);
$v_email = escapeshellarg($_POST['v_email']);
// Protect additional inputs...
exec(VESTA_CMD . "v-generate-ssl-cert " . $v_domain . " " . $v_email . " " . $v_country . " " . $v_state . " " . $v_locality . " " . $v_org . " IT '' 'json'", $output, $return_var);
These are the key corrections and improvements needed to ensure your code works correctly and securely.

It's all silly. The AI doesn't see all the code and all the files. What prevents you from running a test server and trying all these “improvements”? After you can't run the server, don't ask how to fix everything.

Since I'm not developing MyVesta myself, I see no reason to purchase a dedicated test server for it. Artificial intelligence should only be used as a support, as there are definitely still errors present. I have tested models like GPT-4, Claude 3 Opus, which produce quite good code. However, the AI is not error-free either. A persistent issue is the SSL error that occurs when accessing the site via
https://IP-address; a certificate is randomly selected. This should not be the case and it's unfortunate, as it also poses a security risk.

It’s true that while AI, such as GPT-4 and Claude 3 Opus, can generate high-quality code, it is not entirely immune to errors. A common issue like the SSL error is concerning, especially when it poses security risks. Ensuring a secure and stable environment for your projects is crucial, and a dedicated test server could potentially help isolate these issues more effectively.
For those exploring AI-driven solutions, such as the development of chatbots, platforms like
nsfw chatbot offer a range of functionalities tailored for diverse use cases.

Did you have the AI write the answer? My contribution was from May 2024. In the meantime, there are much better language models, for example Claude 3.5 Sonnet (22.10.2024) or o1-2024-12-17. You should test the models then you will realize that they are very good. However, with or without ki, it is a pity that the bugs are not fixed.

Thanks for the correction, yes, they are indeed good. And no, I did not use AI to write the comment, I just read it in one forum.

Hello,
I think I have a solution to the “A persistent issue is the SSL error that occurs when accessing the site via
https://IP-address; a certificate is randomly selected.” problem
See Hestiacp where it was fixed:
https://github.com/hestiacp/hestiacp/pu ... acefc1ef01
This is currently the case in hesticp:
https://github.com/hestiacp/hestiacp/bl ... oxy_ip.tpl
in myvesta is this:
