## #28500 — Pierre — 2007-03-20T21:08:49+00:00

Hi,

While fixing PECL Bug #10426, we found that php_checkuid_ex forces
CHECKUID_DISALLOW_FILE_NOT_EXISTS in read mode.

As php_stream_open_wrapper uses this functions, it is not possible to
call it using a non existing file without getting a warning when
safe_mode is On.

The related code is main/safemode.c:70 :
    if (fopen_mode) {
        if (fopen_mode[0] == 'r') {
            mode = CHECKUID_DISALLOW_FILE_NOT_EXISTS;
        } else {
            mode = CHECKUID_CHECK_FILE_AND_DIR;
        }
    }

Any reason behind this check or should we drop it?

Thanks,
--Pierre
