PHP uploads are not readable

[joximu]

Hi Eminos

I did some researches about this problem. The umask is set correct: 0022 but it seems that php does not set (or removes) any group and world permissions - so there's a 0077 umask hidden in the php code - or it's somewhere else - I didn't found the hideout...

I also did some tests - one on a not very old ispcp server (just a move_uploaded_file) and the same on my 2 year old suse 10 server (with mod_php, no susexec, no fastcgi). They both have 0600 permissions on a newly uploaded files.

Well, of course with mod_php apache is able to read the files (owner = apache) which is not the case with ispcp/fastcgi/suexec - there you have to chmod the newly uploaded file.

I dug deeper: the temporary file already has the 0600 permissions set.

BUT: Now I got something very strange:
If I set the upload_tmp_dir to /tmp (with open_basedir adapted) then the file *there* also has 0600 permission mode but after the use of move_uploaded_file the files has 0644 mode (on the ispcp machine).

Very strange.

So, as a temporary solution I can give you an advice: use /tmp as upload_dir for the Joomla Customers.

And hey: Typo3 does correct the permissions after an upload :-)


Maybe someone else can have a look at this behaviour of php (raphael... ???)

Have a good sunday

Just one more thing:

If the upload_tmp_dir is on the same filesystem as the upload-folder (normally the webspace) then the uploaded file has 0600 rights (-rw-------). If it's on a different filesystem then it has 0644 (-rw-r--r--) ... (or sth else if the umask is not 0022)...

Seems to be a PHP bug.

Conclusion for ispcp:
put the upload dir for problematic domains to another perition on the harddisc.

Hi,

it would be the best if everyone can "vote" for this bug. Currently it affects all php version and it is under ispCP a real problem. You can find the vote under the bug report (http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=42291).

Hi,

the PHP Team made some changes regarding this bug. But they need some help. I have currently no pc so it's impossible for me.

Someone should test the php version posted in http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=42291 and change the bug back to "open".
