Hi again,
I believe it should disallow openning a directory in safe mode if the UID of the directory does not match the UID of the PHP script. That is exactly the behavior of fopen() in safe mode. Without that behavior, users are permitted to write a PHP script that lets them crawl around the webserver seeing things they have no rights to see. It happens on our system that there will never be any files owned by user A under a directory owned by user B. But even if there were, I think safe mode should disallow this type of filesystem reading. Do you think the fact that this file reading is permitted is a bug that should be reported?
