In fact all parent directories up to the root + should be unwritable. The script must not be setuid, that's what + this program is for. + + This is a template program. You need to fill in the name of the + script that must be executed. This is done by changing the + definition of FULL_PATH below. + + There are also some rules that should be adhered to when writing + the script itself. + + The first and most important rule is to never, ever trust that the + user of the program will behave properly. Program defensively. + Check your arguments for reasonableness. If the user is allowed to + create files, check the names of the files. If the program depends + on argv[0] for the action it should perform, check it. + + Assuming the script is a Bourne shell script, the first line of the + script should be + #!/bin/sh - + The - is important, don't omit it. If you're using esh, the first + line should be + #!/usr/local/bin/esh -f + and for ksh, the first line should be + #!/usr/local/bin/ksh -p + The script should then set the variable IFS to the string + consisting of <space>, <tab>, and <newline>. After this (*not* + before!), the PATH variable should be set to a reasonable value and + exported. Do not expect the PATH to have a reasonable value, so do + not trust the old value of PATH. You should then set the umask of + the program by calling + umask 077 # or 022 if you want the files to be readable + If you plan to change directories, you should either unset CDPATH + or set it to a good value. Setting CDPATH to just ``.'' (dot) is a + good idea. + If, for some reason, you want to use csh, the first line should be + #!/bin/csh -fb + You should then set the path variable to something reasonable, + without trusting the inherited path.
