From: jb at jbpros dot com Operating system: GNU/Linux Gentoo PHP version: 5.1.4 PHP Bug Type: Streams related Bug description: chdir() does not use file protocol stream wrappers
Description: ------------ chdir() seems to not use streams to validate the passed path. When one defines a custom wrapper for the file:// scheme, it can be problematic. For example, my custom file:// wrapper is acting like a root jail, "/" being mapped to some directory on disk. This was needed to prevent XML documents xinclude()'ing stuffs outside of the authorized directory, among other things. It works very well except that I'm forced to set the CWD to "/" as other jailed directories are reported as "not found" by PHP. Example: If "/srv/www/jail" is the root jail "/srv/www/jail/data/file.xml" is accessible within the script under the path "/data/file.xml". There I have no way to set the CWD to /data if the real on-disk "/data" path doesn't exist. Maybe this behavior should not change for some reason, but this is a use case where it would be nice. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37555&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37555&r=mysqlcfg
