Description:
------------
file_exists() etc. does not allow checking the existence of files
outside the directories specified in open_basedir.
This can be circumvented using glob(). glob() does check open_basedir,
but its return type still reveals whether files exist outside
open_basedir. The existence of a file can be checked using
!is_array(glob($filename)).
Reproduce code:
---------------
var_dump(glob('/etc/hosts'));
var_dump(glob('/etc/does-not-exist'));
Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)
bool(false)
or
array(0) {
}
array(0) {
}
Actual result:
--------------
bool(false)
array(0) {
}
