How to use file_put_contents function in PHP

This time I will show you how to use the file_put_contents function in PHP. What are the precautions when using the file_put_contents function in PHP? Here are practical cases, let’s take a look.

Recently, I encountered a question on File Upload on EIS. I found that filtering < basically made many gestures invalid. I thought about it for a long time but didn’t solve this question. After the game, I found out that I was using arrays to solve the problem. However, the principle is analyzed here. Not much to say, let’s take a look at the detailed introduction.

Let’s take a look at the official website definition of the second parameter data of the file_put_contents function:

data
要写入的数据。类型可以是 string,array 或者是 stream 资源(如上面所说的那样)。
 
如果 data 指定为 stream 资源,这里 stream 中所保存的缓存数据将被写入到指定文件中,这种用法就相似于使用 stream_copy_to_stream() 函数。
 
参数 data 可以是数组(但不能为多维数组),这就相当于 file_put_contents($filename, join(&#39;&#39;, $array))。
Copy after login

As you can see, the data parameter can be an array, which will be automatically join('',$array)converted into a string

When this function accesses files, it follows the following rules:

  • If FILE_USE_INCLUDE_PATH is set, then the built-in path for a copy of *filename* will be checked

  • If the file does not exist, a file will be created

  • Open the file

  • If LOCK_EX is set, the file will be locked

  • If FILE_APPEND is set, it will be moved to the end of the file. Otherwise, the contents of the file will be cleared

  • Write data to the file

  • Close the file and unlock all files

  • If successful, this function returns the number of characters written to the file. On failure, False is returned.

But our string filtering function generally uses the preg_match function to filter, such as:

if(preg_match(&#39;/\</&#39;,$data)){
 die(&#39;hack&#39;);
}
Copy after login

We know that many functions that process strings will return NULL if an array is passed in, such as strcmp, strlen, md5, etc. But the preg_match function returns false if an error occurs. Here we can pass var_dump(preg_match('/</' ,$data)); To verify, in this case, the regular filtering of preg_match will be invalid

Therefore, I guess the file upload code is written like this

<?php 
 
if(isset($_POST[&#39;content&#39;]) && isset($_POST[&#39;ext&#39;])){
 $data = $_POST[&#39;content&#39;];
 $ext = $_POST[&#39;ext&#39;];
 
 //var_dump(preg_match(&#39;/\</&#39;,$data));
 if(preg_match(&#39;/\</&#39;,$data)){
  die(&#39;hack&#39;);
 }
 $filename = time();
 file_put_contents($filename.$ext, $data);
}
 
?></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
So we can pass in <code>content[]=<?php phpinfo();?>&ext=php </code> to bypass </p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Repair method</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">
The fix is ​​to use the fwrite function to replace the dangerous file_put_contents function. The fwrite function can only pass in strings. If it is an array, it will error and return false</p>
<pre class="brush:php;toolbar:false"><?php 
 
if(isset($_POST[&#39;content&#39;]) && isset($_POST[&#39;ext&#39;])){
 $data = $_POST[&#39;content&#39;];
 $ext = $_POST[&#39;ext&#39;];
 
 //var_dump(preg_match(&#39;/\</&#39;,$data));
 if(preg_match(&#39;/\</&#39;,$data)){
  die(&#39;hack&#39;);
 }
 $filename = time();
 // file_put_contents($filename.$ext, $data);
 $f = fopen($filename.$ext);
 var_dump(fwrite($f,$data));
}
 
?>
Copy after login

JWT is an open standard based on JSON, used to securely transmit information between parties, mainly for identity authentication and information exchange. 1. JWT consists of three parts: Header, Payload and Signature. 2. The working principle of JWT includes three steps: generating JWT, verifying JWT and parsing Payload. 3. When using JWT for authentication in PHP, JWT can be generated and verified, and user role and permission information can be included in advanced usage. 4. Common errors include signature verification failure, token expiration, and payload oversized. Debugging skills include using debugging tools and logging. 5. Performance optimization and best practices include using appropriate signature algorithms, setting validity periods reasonably,
