# Admin Area Audit Report

## Validation completed

- 193 PHP files were linted after repairs.
- No PHP syntax errors remain.
- Local links, includes, redirects, form actions, assets and common security mistakes were scanned.

## Repairs applied

1. `proof.php`
   - Fixed an unclosed conditional block that caused a fatal parse error.
   - Added request-method validation, CSRF validation with `hash_equals`, input validation, prepared-statement checks and a server-side redirect.

2. `walletinfo.php`
   - Fixed an unmatched closing brace.
   - Added the missing session/database includes.
   - Removed the hardcoded `$id = 1` assignment.
   - Corrected the reversed wallet/address parameter binding.
   - Added validation, statement error handling and a safe redirect.

3. `asset_create3.php` and `asset_create4.php`
   - Removed the duplicated hardcoded CoinGecko API key.
   - Both scripts now read `COINGECKO_API_KEY` from the server environment.
   - Re-enabled TLS certificate verification.
   - Added `.env.example` without a real credential.

4. Sections module
   - Corrected `sectioncreate.php`, which was inserting section data into the `projects` table.
   - Ensured a CSRF token is generated before the form is displayed.
   - Prevented database insertion when the image upload fails.
   - Added MIME-based image validation and randomized file names.
   - Corrected the wrong `$stmt` error reference.
   - Added the previously missing `sectionedit.php` and `sectiondelete.php` route files.

## External dependencies not included in this ZIP

The admin package expects shared files outside `user_admin`, including:

- `../../constants/session.php`
- `../../constants/connection.php`
- `../../constants/websiteinfo.php`
- `../../constants/userinfo.php`
- other files under `../../constants/`
- parts of the corresponding `user_client` directory

These paths must match the final deployed folder structure.

## Remaining compatibility considerations

- Many routes are extensionless, such as `deployments`, `sections`, `inbox` and `casino`. They require Apache MultiViews or rewrite rules. On hosts without that support, change them to explicit `.php` routes.
- Some bundled template/demo pages refer to absent sample HTML pages and vendor assets. These appear to be unused template remnants, but they should be removed if those pages are reachable from the live sidebar.
- Database-level behavior could not be fully executed because the shared connection files and complete SQL schema were not included in this ZIP.
- Destructive actions across the older admin pages are often performed through GET links. They should eventually be migrated to POST forms with CSRF validation.
- Several older scripts display raw database errors to the browser. Production should log detailed errors server-side and show generic messages to administrators.
- Uploaded files should be stored outside executable PHP paths where possible, with server rules preventing script execution inside upload folders.

## Environment setup

Set the CoinGecko key in Apache, PHP-FPM, the hosting control panel, or a protected environment loader:

```text
COINGECKO_API_KEY=your_real_key
```

Do not place real credentials in `.env.example` or commit them to source control.
