Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-13 20:07:28] [EMAIL PROTECTED] What if you set it in php.ini instead of httpd.conf? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-13 19:58:08] chrysalis at chrysalisnet dot org ok here is info your requested include("/etc/passwd"); is the exact line I used in the php file, this generates the following in the apache error_log for the vhost. [Wed Sep 13 20:51:48 2006] [error] PHP Warning: main() [<a href='function.main'>function.main</a>]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/etc/passwd) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/chrysalis/:/tmp/:/var/www/:/var/uebimiau:/usr/local/lib/php/:/etc/virtual/:/usr/uebimiau) in /home/chrysalis/domains/chrysalisnet.org/public_html/exploit.php on line 17 [Wed Sep 13 20:51:48 2006] [error] PHP Warning: main(/etc/passwd) [<a href='function.main'>function.main</a>]: failed to open stream: Operation not permitted in /home/chrysalis/domains/chrysalisnet.org/public_html/exploit.php on line 17 this indicates to me open_basedir is in effect as its generating the correct log entry but then the /etc/passwd is displayed in the browser window. in phpinfo I get the following data for open_basedir local value. open_basedir /home/chrysalis/:/tmp/:/var/www/:/var/uebimiau:/usr/local/lib/php/:/etc/virtual/:/usr/uebimiau master value is the same with 1 extra dir /etc/awstats url temporarily up for your conveniance http://www.chrysalisnet.org/phpinfo.php the master value is set in php.ini the local value is set in a vhost container in httpd.conf using "php_admin_value open_basedir" I checked the exact same script on php 5.1.5 which has the same php settings other then php 5 specific settings and works as it should, I am about to try with php 4.4.3 to see if that has the same behaviour. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-13 19:36:33] [EMAIL PROTECTED] What you said is just "include "/etc/passwd" displays the contents of this file". Why do you think open_basedir is even set? What is the value? Where did you set it? How did you set it? What is the value in phpinfo()? Did you check it with other files? I'll add more questions afterwards. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-13 19:02:46] chrysalis at chrysalisnet dot org what other information do you need? its a very simple bug and easy to test, the only think I havent done that is on the how to report page is tested the cvs version. when I submitted the report I was told to add a 'brief' description of the problem so for that reason it wasnt detailed, then I was asked to provide the code that you can test with also provided and finally the php version and os version both supplied. apache version is 1.3.37 php reccomended ini file used changes were open base dir and zone optimiser and eaccelerator, however tried with both zend optimiser and eaccelerator and the behaviour remained. mysql version 4.1.x but this is just basic php code no database involved. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-09-13 08:02:35] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Not enough information was provided for us to be able to handle this bug.
