point 4 under the �suEXEC Security Model� of the �suEXEC Support documentation�

           Summary: point 4 under the �suEXEC Security Model� of the �suEXEC
                    Support documentation�
           Product: Apache httpd-2.0
           Version: 2.0.47
          Platform: All
               URL: http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/suexec.html
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: [email protected]

The point 4 (Does the target program have an unsafe hierarchical reference?)
under the �suEXEC Security Model� of the �suEXEC Support documentation�
(http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/suexec.html). 

It not clear whether you are referring to the CGI program�s path or program�s
content or both. 


Existing rule:
4.  Does the target program have an unsafe hierarchical reference? 
Does the target program contain a leading '/' or have a '..' backreference?
These are not allowed; the target program must reside within the Apache 
webspace. 

The above would be better written as follows:

4. Does the target CGI program�s path have an unsafe hierarchical reference? 
Does the target CGI program�s path contain a leading '/' or have a '..'
backreference? These are not allowed; the target CGI program must reside within
the suEXEC's docroot (--with-suexec-docroot=DIR).
