Run SUID C scripts under Apache

i have a cgi script in c the same as this:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string>

int main(void) {

    printf("Content-type: text/html\n\n");

    printf("RUID : %d<br />\n", getuid());
    printf("EUID : %d<br />\n", geteuid());

    char ch;
    char getLine[256];
    char *token = NULL;
    FILE *ft;

    ft = fopen("/etc/shadow", "r");
    if(ft == NULL){
        printf("%s", "can not open file");
        exit(1);
    }
    while(1){
        ch=fgetc(ft);
        if(ch == EOF)
            break;
        else if(ch == '\n'){
            token = (char *)strtok(getLine, ":");
            printf("<b> fitst toke : %s</b><br />\n", token);
            if(strcmp(token,"root") == 0){
                token = (char *)strtok(NULL, ":");
                pri开发者_高级运维ntf("password is : %s<br />\n", token);
                break;
            }
        } else{
            sprintf(getLine, "%s%c", getLine, ch);
        }
    }

  return 0;
}

after compile and set SUID:

chmod a+s ./mycode

if run this in shell, every thing seem okay :

Content-type: text/html

RUID : 500<br />
EUID : 0<br />
<b> fitst toke : root</b><br />
password is : $1$aLRBTUSe$341xIb6AlUeOlrtRdWGY40<br />

but if run it under apache and in cgi-bin, he say, can not open file. although the EUID seem to be okay :

RUID : 48<br />
EUID : 0<br />
can not open file

Thanks!

Apache may be configured so it could have been run from a chroot jail. In that case /etc/shadow would not be available.

This problem can solved with setenforce 0 to stop selinux stop.
