i did not test it, but 'looking at the source code' (TM)
seems you need to use open_basedir to limit opendir()
directory range.

On the same system (=same configuration) chdir() IS limited by
safe_mode, opendir() are readdir() are NOT.
This is either a bug, or if it isn't, I'll make it a feature request.
Either way, it should be fixed, I think.
Kind Regards,

Sorry for the bogus.
Would you care to elaborate? I seem to be misunderstanding something. I
just don't understand why - with the same configuration - chdir() cares
about the UID, and opendir/readdir don't. chdir raises a "SAFE MODE
Restriction in effect" whereas readdir() and opendir() let me browse
through all directories where I have apache allowed to.
Thanks for your help.
Kind Regards,
Daniel Lorch

Like I mentioned on the mailing list, opendir() is the function that
would be relevant here. It is analogous to saying that mysql_query()
should block you from accessing data in a database as opposed to this
access restriction being placed on the mysql_connect() call. If the
perms on the dir are such that opendir() can read the directory under
safe-mode, then readdir() is going to give you a list of the files in
that dir.
Whether you can actually open and read those individual files
themselves is of course another issue and any such access would be
subject to a safe-mode check. But an individual readdir() call does
not have any safe-mode implications.

I hope this is not just a configuration problem. We have safe_mode
turned on and all file-system functions ARE limited by safe_mode - only
readdir() doesn't seem to be. Would anyone mind to have a look at this?
I have provided a sample script so it shouldn't take long to test it
with your configuration:
----------------------------------
<?php
function list_dir($dir) {
$h = @opendir($dir);
if(!$h)
return false;
while($e = readdir($h)) {
$p = $dir . '/' . $e;
if($p != '.' && $p != '..')
if(is_dir($p))
echo '[DIR] ', $e, "<br>\n";
else
echo $e, "<br>\n";
}
closedir($h);
}
list_dir($QUERY_STRING);
?>
----------------------------------
just save this file as for example "dir.php" and run with
dir.php?/home/customer/
to list contents. I looked at the release announcement of 4.1.1 and
there was no description of this bug:
http://www.php.net/release_4_1_1.php
I also looked through the existing bug database and found nothing about
it. Excuse me if it's a dupe or even a bogus.
Kind Regards,
