Dear Jan,

I've added something like
$string = preg_replace('!s:(\d+):"(.*?)";!se',  
"'s:'.strlen('$2').':\"$2\";'", $string);

before each occurence of unseralize in Horde's code. Now each  
serialized array gets correctly unserialized.

Wouldn't it be possible to add a helper function horde_unserialize as  
a wrapper for the php unserialize function which does sanitize the  
returned serialized arrays from the database tables? I'm wondering why  
no other people out there were running into this issue if they use  
opensuse.

Best regards,
Steffen
