Subject: Ensure instanceid contains a letter
X-Git-Tag: v6.0.0alpha2~983^2
X-Git-Url: https://source.dussan.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=93a6ed3dab8d54fa2c735381298bec2bbcdfde41;p=nextcloud-server.git

Ensure instanceid contains a letter

instanceid is generated by uniqid() and then used as the
session_name. Because session_name requires at least one letter
and uniqid() does not guarantee to provide that, in the case that
uniqid() generates a string of only digits, the user will be stuck
in an infinite login loop because every request will generate a
new PHP session.
