== Why is this an issue?
``++file_uploads++`` is an on-by-default PHP configuration that allows files to be uploaded to your site. Since accepting [.line-through]#candy# files from strangers is inherently dangerous, this feature should be disabled unless it is absolutely necessary for your site.
This rule raises an issue when ``++file_uploads++`` is not explicitly disabled.
=== Noncompliant code example
[source,php]
----
; php.ini
file_uploads=1 ; Noncompliant
----
=== Compliant solution
[source,php]
----
; php.ini
file_uploads=0

\[~ann.campbell.2] from the sentence "This rule raises an issue when file_uploads *is not explicitly disabled.*" I understand taht the rule it will not raise any issue if and only if the following line is present in the file: "file_uploads=*0*" is correct ?
I yes, maybe a compliant code snippet could be aded, WDYT ?
