Operating system: SunOS 5.8
PHP version: 4.3.11
PHP Bug Type: Safe Mode/open_basedir
Bug description: open_basedir restrictions do not work with file creation in
symlinked directory
Description:
------------
We have some Apache/1.3.31 vhosts with open_basedir restrictions:
php_admin_value open_basedir
"/export/home/websites/it/:/export2/home/websites/it/:/tmp/:/var/tmp/"
/export/home/websites/it/ is a symlink to the directory
/export2/home/websites/it/ .
A script writing to an existing file in /export/home/websites/it/ works
without a flaw.
Removing the file (so the script should create the file) produces an
open_basedir warning.
(The creation of a file in the real directory /export2/home/websites/it/
works.)
I've already checked the (symlink-)ownership and directory-permissions.
safe_mode is disabled for testing purposes.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
$f = fopen("/export/home/websites/it/test", "w");
?>
Expected result:
----------------
As the file's path is in the allowed paths the file should be created (as
it can be read when it exists).
Actual result:
--------------
Warning: fopen(): open_basedir restriction in effect.
File(/export/home/websites/it/test) is not within the allowed path(s):
(/export/home/websites/it:/export2/home/websites/it:/tmp/:/var/tmp/) in
/export2/home/websites/it/test.php on line 2
Warning: fopen(/export/home/websites/it/test): failed to open stream: Not
owner in /export2/home/websites/it/test.php on line 2
