Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: php5

Hi,

there is a bug in php 5.3.2 which makes filter_var to fail on
urls/domains/hosts that contain a dash ('-').

Since filter_var is used in some well known webfrontends (syscp for
example), the bug stops users from using domains like "ubuntu-
linux.org".

The patch is included in php 5.3.3.

More can be found here: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51192

Regards,
Sven
