Description: ------------ Could someone find a way so that files (i.e., .htaccess, .httpd) could be block from opening by a user and that open_basedir can be set on a per-directory while still enforceing the open_basedir set in .httpd or php.ini. Reproduce code: --------------- php.ini: open_basedir = "/usr/home/public_html/" deny_open_files = ".htaccess,.httpd" .htaccess (#1): php_flag open_basedir = "/usr/home/public_html/some/dir/" .htaccess (#2): php_flag open_basedir = "/" script1.php: <?php $fp=fopen("text.txt", "w"); fwrite($fp, "nice text"); fclose($fp); echo "file writing done"; ?> script2.php: <?php $fp=fopen(".htaccess", "w"); fwrite($fp, "evil code"); fclose($fp); echo "evil done"; ?> Expected result: ---------------- .htaccess (#1) will work while, .htaccess (#2) will not. and script1.php will return: file writing done and script2.php will return: Error: fopen(): You are not allowed to open that file for security resons. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=24516&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=24516&r=gnused
