If you are going for a console command it would be: chmod -R 777 /www/store. The -R (or –recursive) options make it recursive. Or if you want to make all the files in the current directory have all permissions type: chmod -R 777 ./ If you need more info about chmod command see: File permission
It allows filesystem content to be viewed and/or modified by anyone: assuming the attacker already has general system access which is very common on shared hosting platforms .. some are more “hardened” than others from the start. Here is a small incomplete list of possible attack vectors: “your safe code” could be overwritten with “their … Read more
Use os.stat() to get the current permissions, use | to OR the bits together, and use os.chmod() to set the updated permissions. Example: import os import stat st = os.stat(‘somefile’) os.chmod(‘somefile’, st.st_mode | stat.S_IEXEC)
The other answers are correct, in that chmod -R 755 will set these permissions to all files and subfolders in the tree. But why on earth would you want to? It might make sense for the directories, but why set the execute bit on all the files? I suspect what you really want to do … Read more
This is the most restrictive and safest way I’ve found, as explained here for hypothetical ~/my/web/root/ directory for your web content: For each parent directory leading to your web root (e.g. ~/my, ~/my/web, ~/my/web/root): chmod go-rwx DIR (nobody other than owner can access content) chmod go+x DIR (to allow “users” including _www to “enter” the … Read more
Here’s one scenario: You have an unprotected directory that users can upload to. They upload two files: a shell script, and a php file that has a system() call in it to the shell script. they access the php script they just uploaded by visiting the url in their browser, causing the shell script to … Read more
An easy way is to let PHP create the directory itself in the first place. <?php $dir=”myDir”; // create new directory with 744 permissions if it does not exist yet // owner will be the user/group the PHP script is run under if ( !file_exists($dir) ) { mkdir ($dir, 0744); } file_put_contents ($dir.’/test.txt’, ‘Hello File’); … Read more
When you setup WP you (the webserver) may need write access to the files. So the access rights may need to be loose. chown www-data:www-data -R * # Let Apache be owner find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \; # Change directory permissions rwxr-xr-x find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \; … Read more
Try: git config core.fileMode false From git-config(1): core.fileMode Tells Git if the executable bit of files in the working tree is to be honored. Some filesystems lose the executable bit when a file that is marked as executable is checked out, or checks out a non-executable file with executable bit on. git-clone(1) or git-init(1) probe … Read more
