Everywhere I read about cgi setuid programs says that it is wrong and must never be done, but nobody says how to circumvent the need of it. In my case, I need to read a password from a protected file (read only, owned by root) to connect to a database. How can I do this without running setuid?
How about changing the owner of the file to match the user your web server runs under?
