[PHP-DEV] Security question with PHP on Unix / Linux.
Hi, At this point of time, I am trying to understand the way security is implemented for PHP on Unix / Linux. I mean, how are the different users distinguished in Unix / Linux. Do they get to login into the Unix / Linux system through separate accounts? In that case, do they have separate data space for each user? What is the API that is used to login to Unix / Linux. User may enter his username and password on the browser, but how do they get translated onto the Unix / Linux box? The end goal is to separate out uses and to make sure that normal users (who do not have admin rights) do not get to read a file, write into a file etc from areas that they have no access rights into. How is this access rights set in Unix / Linux? Your help in this is appreciated.

Re: [PHP-DEV] Security question with PHP on Unix / Linux.
Hi Dan, I am a newbie to Unix systems and so it is very much possible to misunderstand concepts there:-( Well, I had first posted this on the PHP general list. Got no response there and so posted onto this mailing list. Maybe I will again go back to the general list. Thanks, Ananth.

Re: [PHP-DEV] Re: Mandatory File Locking in PHP?
So, as of now, do we restrict PHP script to use only advisory file locking? Thanks, Ananth.

If everyone is playing on the same team, advisory locks should provide all the semantics you need (and are very portable). Mandatory locks (on linux at least) require not only special mount options, but special perms to the file (g-x, g+s, I believe). That seems like a lot to require inside an extension. The dba solution so far is based on flock() and where not appropriate use fctnl(). I tried to have the lock stuff working on as many systems as possible. Right. Both of these are pretty portable, one being present on all BSD-style systems and the other on POSIX systems. They are also advisory locks. Mandatory locks actually prevent read and write calls from _anyone_ else succeeding on that file. On linux, mandatory locks are set with fcntl, but it's not part of the standard POSIX standard. -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP-DEV] system() function call: Strange error on NetWare!
Hi,
I am using the system function on NetWare. I find the following strange
error:
1. If I use single quoted strings, then I don't have any problem with
any combination of the slash.
system('sys:\system\p.nlm');// WORKS
system('sys:\\system\\p.nlm'); // WORKS
system('sys:\system\r.nlm');// WORKS
system('sys:\\system\\r.nlm'); // WORKS
2. If I use doble quoted string then it works in these cases:
system(sys:\system\p.nlm);// WORKS
system(sys:\\system\\p.nlm); // WORKS
system(sys:\\system\\r.nlm); // WORKS
3. If I use double quoted string and I use single slash and the nlm
name starts with 'n' or 'r' or 't', then the system function call fails
to load the nlm thought the nlm is present in the given location. That
is the below does not work:
system(sys:\system\r.nlm);// WORKS
This erros appears to be strange with only three letters not being
allowed. Can anyone throw some light as to what is happening here? Could
there be a mistake in the NetWare port?
I have debugged to the point that:
- In zend_execute.c, the execution comes to the execute function.
- Inside that it comes upto case ZEND_DO_FCALL:
- There is gets into the ZEND_INTERNAL_FUNCTION where it does a
ALLOC_ZVAL and INIT_ZVAL.
- Then it calls the correspoing Internal Function which in this case is
system.
- Inside the system function, if we pring the Z_STRVAL_PP(arg1), we
find that it is only contains value like sys:\system for the last case
(mentioned above) for which there is error.
Thanks,
Ananth.

If used in a string, these characters have the following meaning:
\r = #13 (CR)
\n = #10 (LF)
\t = #9 (tab)
so that's the reason why it doesnt work.

[PHP-DEV] Mandatory File Locking in PHP?
Hi, From the PHP manual I find that the flock() function does a advisory file locking. Is there a way to do mandatory file locking where we do strict locking? That is once a file is locked, no other process or thread is allowed to edit the file untill the lock owner is done with his job and he has removed the lock.

Re: [PHP-DEV] PHP building on Linux: A question on configurescript!
Hi, Please refer to the mail given below that I sent you earlier. You had told us that --with-apxs is the way to go. But we still have the same issue. Let me explain: We currently use apxs to build a PHP DSO for Apache 1.3. We haven't gotten around to trying it for Apache 2.0 yet. The problem we have is that the core PHP piece, which used to be in a separate loadable module called phplib.l, is not produced anymore. But this is part of one single PHP Apache module php_apache.sim, which is specific to Apache 1.3. As you can see, if we want to build PHP for Apache 2.0, then we would have to produce another DSO for Apache 2.0 (php_apache2.sim or something like that) which will *also* have embedded in the core PHP part that was in phplib.l (.l indicates a shared library, .SIM is also a shared library, but a special one.) What we are looking for is to find out whether or not the current autotool input files of PHP support the ability to produce a spearate phplib.l and the appropriate main module - one for Apache 1.3, one for Apache 2.0, one for command line etc. each of which can use the same phplib.l ? We tried to figure this out on Linux, but it appears that this seems not to be supported. Are we correct in our findings? Or is there really a way of doing the above of having different shared modules? Your clarifications on this is highly appreciated. Thanks, Ananth. Ananth Kesari [EMAIL PROTECTED] 12/13/02 08:00PM Hi, I am involved in porting PHP for NetWare. We are now looking at and trying to understand how PHP is built on Linux. I have a question for the same. It could be a newbie question on configure script since we are new to Linux. Please help. The question is like this: On NetWare: We generate mod_php executable as the Apache module which Apache loads when appropriately configured. This in turn will use the phplib executable which has the TSRM, ZEND, all the standard extensions and libraries built into it. Then we have separate executables for extensions like MySQL, LDAP, XML etc. On Linux: We are trying to look at building a similar binaries on Linux also. Is that how it is done on Linux also? To build for Apache on Unix, it appears that we have to use the following options in the configure script to get the equivalent of what I mentioned above: --with-apache=Path to Apache source --disable-posix --with-mysql=shared --with-ldap=shared --enable-ftp --enable-bcmath --enable-calendar The problem in this approach is that we seem to be getting a static library (xxx.a) as an output. We are not clear what we are supposed to do with this library! Perhaps this needs to be then built along with Apache into the Apache executable. There is an option called: --with-apxs=path to the apxs script of Apache which seems to produce a DSO which doesn't seem to work on Linux. The build fails due to errors in the apxs script. So, isn't it possible to produce on Linux, the equivalent of what I mentioned above for NetWare? If so, what options do we need to use for the configure process? We need to understand whether we are not using the right options or whether it is simply not possible to do so with what we have. The latter meaning that we need to make the necessary modifications to the input files to get what we want. Your early reply on this is highly appreciated.

Hi Jean, Thanks for your elaborate reply with the work around. I also got the files you sent. We will try this and get back to you if we have any issues. Thanks, Ananth. Jean-Michel Dault [EMAIL PROTECTED] 01/06/03 10:19PM Le lun 06/01/2003 à 07:24, Ananth Kesari a écrit : What we are looking for is to find out whether or not the current autotool input files of PHP support the ability to produce a spearate phplib.l and the appropriate main module - one for Apache 1.3, one for Apache 2.0, one for command line etc. each of which can use the same phplib.l ? We tried to figure this out on Linux, but it appears that this seems not to be supported. Are we correct in our findings? Or is there really a way of doing the above of having different shared modules? It is not supported officially, but there's a way to do it. As I promised a couple of days ago, here is a solution that works for me, though it's not very pretty. I could of course modify the m4 files, but it's left as an exercise to the readers of this list ;-) Here is the procedure: 1) Patch the makefile.global and configure script using the shared-patch I enclosed in this mail. This will compile a shared library containing the PHP core, and will patch the CGI and CLI version so they use this library. 2) do ./configure, with all the options that you want, but do *not* use the --with-apache or --with-apxs options. You want to compile first the CGI and CLI binaries and the shared library. 3) do a make, but do not do a make install yet. 4) To compile the Apache 1.3 module, use the enclosed do1.3 script. If your Apache environment is setup correctly, you will have a libphp4.so in the sapi/apache directory. This is the Apache DSO that you'll need to copy in your Apache 1.3 modules directory. 5) To compile the Apache 2.0 module, use the enclosed do2.0 script. If your Apache environment is setup correctly, you will have a mod_php4.so in the sapi/apache2filter/.libs directory. This is the Apache 2.0 DSO that you'll need to copy in your Apache 2.0 modules directory. Please note that to be able to compile both Apache 1.3 and Apache 2.0 modules, you need two different apxs binaries and two different apache include directories. I personnaly use the following dirs: Apache 1.3: /usr/sbin/apxs and /usr/include/apache for 1.3 Apache 2.0: /usr/sbin/apxs2 and /usr/include/apache2 6) Finally, place the libphp_common library in /usr/lib mv libphp_common.so libphp_common.so.430 ln -s libphp_common.so.430 libphp_common cp libphp_common* /usr/lib 7) Now do a make install, make install-cli 8) Finally, you can install sapi/cgi/php to whatever location/name you want that is different from the CLI version. 9) You'll still need to tweak your httpd.conf to put the required LoadModule, AddModule and AddType directives. 10) Or better yet, install Mandrake Linux and have it already pre-configured ;-) Regards, Jean-Michel Dault Apache/PHP Packager Mandrake Linux -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP-DEV] Help requested: Memory leak in PHP for NetWare
Hi, We are seeing a large memory leak in PHP 4.2.3 for NetWare. We just load mod_php alongwith apache 1.3 and then unload apache without executing any script. We find that there is a memory leak of about 14KB. The same is observed when we load the command line version of PHP also and unload it. In fact, it was earlier leaking about 55KB. We added the following code in the zend_shutdown function in zend.c. These release about 21KB. destroy_zend_class(zend_standard_class_def); zend_hash_destroy(EG(persistent_list)); zend_hash_destroy(EG(zend_constants)); free(EG(zend_constants)); zend_hash_destroy(GLOBAL_CONSTANTS_TABLE); free(GLOBAL_CONSTANTS_TABLE); Can you throw some light on how we can go about releasing the other 14KB? I feel the extra is also in Zend. Or is it that Apache may be caching some memory and freeing it after some time. But this doesn't explain why the command line PHP (cli) is also leaking memory. This is quite a critical issue with NetWare customers and so your help in this is deeply appreciated.

[PHP-DEV] long long data type in libmysql.
Hi, We are working on porting PHP onto NetWare. PHP-4.2.2 sources for libmysql seem to be using the data type long long and we are facing some problems handling this data type. We see extensive use of _WIN32 and _MSC_VER in these files and so we are sure that it was compiled with MSVC. But we got to understand from a reliable source that Microsoft C compiler doesn't understand this data type. Correct us if we are wrong. Can someone let us know how MSVC managed to handle the data type long long? Thanks, Ananth. -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP-DEV] PHP tested on 64-bit OS?
Hi, We are working on porting PHP for NetWare. We have a question here: Has PHP been tested on any 64-bit Operating System? Thanks, Ananth. -- PHP Development Mailing List http://www.php.net/ To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
RE: [PHP-DEV] PHP tested on 64-bit OS?
Thank you Gentlemen for the information. Well, it is our team that ported PHP for NetWare and released the beta version. We are now working further on it to release the FCS version. We will also be merging our souces completely into the CVS tree. Thanks, Ananth.

We are working on porting PHP for NetWare. We have a question here: Has PHP been tested on any 64-bit Operating System? I'm running it on Compaq Tru64/Alpha and I'm absolutely not satisfied in how 4.1.x/4.2.x run on that Platform. 4.3-dev runs nice :) On Solaris 7/UltraSparc everything is fine as far as I can see.

[PHP-DEV] Scripts running on two different browsers crashes the server
Hi All,
I am porting PHP for NetWare. I have run into a problem during unit
testing and I seek inputs from you on this.
I am using two scripts:
1. In one, I am using a simple while loop:
?php
for ($i=0; $i10; $i++) {
echo Loop no = $i.br;
}
?
2. In the other, I am just displaying the PHP info using
?php
phpinfo();
?
If I run these scripts individually, it is fine.
Even if run the while loop script simultaneously on two different
browsers, it works fine on both the browsers.
But if I run the first script (while loop) in one browser and while it
is running, if I run the second script from another brower, then my
NetWare server crashes. Strangely, the PHP info output from the second
browser is getting displayed on the first browser (!) where only the
loop numbers are supposed to be displayed. The font and size of the
display also changes. The server abends before the loop is completed.
Nothing is getting displayed on the second brower.
When I walk through the stack, I find that the abend seems to be
happening in the _zval_ptr_dtor function that is called after the
function, zend_stack_apply_with_argument is called which in turn is
called by the execute function.
I feel this may be due to data corruption between different threads in
some specific cases. Is it due to the usage of global variable or the
usage of static variables that are shared across threads?
I would greatly appreciate if anyone can throw some light on this.
Please note that I am using the PHP development version 4.0.8.
Thanks,
Ananth.
