Thing is, the slightest change in the "setup" make the bug go away, and the exact setup described in the tarball reproduces it. For what I know, you _need_ the extra include dir under / to reproduce, and you _must_ call php as described in the "fail" script in the tarball, i.e. with the full path _including_ the symlink. Both is not in your simplified way to reproduce it. Thanks! Stephan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-21 13:37:53] the...@php.net Wait: # /opt/php/php-5.3.2/sapi/cli/php -r 'var_dump(realpath("/phplink/phpinclude/inc123.php"));' string(22) "/phpinclude/inc123.php" ...and: # echo '<?php var_dump(realpath("/phplink/phpinclude/inc123.php"));' > test.php # /opt/php/php-5.3.2/sapi/cli/php test.php string(22) "/phpinclude/inc123.php" But: # echo '<?php var_dump(realpath("/phplink/phpinclude/inc123.php"));' > /phplink/phptest/test.php # /opt/php/php-5.3.2/sapi/cli/php /phplink/phptest/test.php bool(false) So if the executed script itself is inside the symlink'd directory, VCWD_REALPATH() does not correctly work (used by both include / require and realpath(), that's why I'm using the latter here) This does not occur with PHP 5.2.X (or PHP4, btw) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-21 13:12:21] the...@php.net Cannot reproduce on Gentoo with 5.3.2-RELEASE. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-21 13:05:09] stephan dot suerken at 1und1 dot de >[2010-05-20 10:14 UTC] m...@php.net >You think anybody's goind to untar something in his root AS root? Well...yes ;). Look at the tarball first, it's harmless. >Please provide some proper steps to reproduce, thank you. I could not find another way to reproduce it (yet) but in /; the tarball seems to be the easiest way to make someone else reproduce it. Thx, Stephan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-21 12:06:35] the...@php.net 1) Create a symlink in / to / r...@thekid:/ > ln -s / phptest r...@thekid:/ > ls -al /phptest lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 1 May 21 10:40 /phptest -> / 2) Verify r...@thekid:/ > echo "OK" > /phpfile r...@thekid:/ > php -r 'include("/phptest/phpfile");' Expected result: "OK" 3) Clean up r...@thekid:/ > rm /phptest /phpfile You need to be root because you're working in /, that's it:) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
