ABOUT mod_ruid2 is a suexec module for apache 2.0, 2.2 and 2.4, based on mod_ruid and mod_suid2 -it runs only on Linux because only the Linux kernel has implemented the required process capabilities. -it has better performance than mod_suid2 because it doesn`t need to kill httpd children after one request. it makes use of kernel capabilites and after receiving a new request suids again. -there are some security issues, for instance if attacker successfully exploits the httpd process, he can set effective capabilities and setuid to root. i recommend to use some security patch in kernel (grsec), or something.. -there are two main operation modes: stat and config 1. config is default, you must define uid and gid. If no [ug]id is defined the default user and group are used. 2. stat httpd setuid and setgid to uid and gid of requested filename(script)/directory this is good if you use mod_vhost_alias for virtual hosting INSTALL 1. download and install latest libcap from here 2. run /apachedir/bin/apxs -a -i -l cap -c mod_ruid2.c 3. configure httpd.conf 4. restart apache CONFIGURE OPTIONS: RMode config|stat (default is config) RUidGid user|#uid group|#gid - when RMode is config, set to this uid and gid RMinUidGid user|#uid group|#gid - when uid/gid is < than min uid/gid set to default uid/gid RDefaultUidGid user|#uid group|#gid RGroups group1 group2 - additional groups set via setgroups @none - clear all previous defined groups. RDocumentChrRoot - Set chroot directory and the document root inside EXAMPLE: LoadModule ruid2_module modules/mod_ruid2.so User apache Group apache RMode stat RGroups apachetmp RDocumentChRoot /home /example.com/public_html NameVirtualHost 192.168.0.1 <VirtualHost example.com> ServerAdmin webmaster@example.com RDocumentChRoot /home /example.com/public_html ServerName example.com ServerAlias www.example.com RMode config # unnecessary since config is the default RUidGid user1 group1 RGroups apachetmp <Directory /home/example.com/public_html/dir> RMode stat </Directory> <Directory /home/example.com/public_html/dir/test> RMode config RUidGid user2 group2 RGroups groups1 </Directory> <Directory /home/example.com/public_html/dir/test/123> RUidGid user3 group3 </Directory> <Location /yustadir> RMode config RUidGid user4 user4 RGroups groups4 </Location> </VirtualHost> <VirtualHost example.net> ServerAdmin webmaster@example.net DocumentRoot /home/example.net/public_html ServerName example.net ServerAlias www.example.net </VirtualHost>
