ID: 65285 Updated by: cataphr...@php.net Reported by: bugs dot php dot net at ss dot chernousov dot net Summary: socket_sendmsg() - accept numeric file descriptors -Status: Open +Status: Wont fix Type: Feature/Change Request Package: Sockets related PHP Version: 5.5Git-2013-07-18 (Git) Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Unfortunately, this kind of functionality has been strictly limited in the past (php://fd has been limited to the cli sapi) under the rationale that it would allow PHP to manipulate Apache's file descriptors (when running as module) or whatever other file descriptors such as logs' or the the client connection socket's. I find the argument that this is a vulnerability unpersuasive, but that's the conclusion that prevailed. Won't fix.
