Operating system: Linux pr5 2.4.18-3
PHP version:      4.3.1
PHP Bug Type:     Directory function related
Bug description:  vulnerability in mkdir and other unix-commands!

Description:
------------
php function mkdir allows hackers to execute various commands on the
server.
Some scripts need a directory name for user. They may enter

'/www/somedir /usr/bin/wget ...'

and command

'/usr/bin/wget somethinghere'

will be executed on the server without problems!
It happens when php calls unix command mkdir.

Regards, Flashman
