Things to note when calling shell commands in PHP

Interested friends can refer to the precautions for calling the shell command in PHP.

escapeshellarg ( string $arg )
can be used for PHP security and will filter out some special characters present in arg. If

contains Chinese characters in the input parameters and passes them to escapeshellarg, they will be filtered out.

escapeshellcmd ( string $command )
escapeshellcmd() function will escape all shell metacharacters in the command to complete the work. These metacharacters

include: # & ; ` , | * ? ~ < > ^ ( ) [ ] { } $ \.

exec ( string $command [, array &$output [, int &$return_var]] )
Execute the defined command command. If the array output is defined, the output result will be transferred to the output ,

The return value of the execution result is stored in return_var.

passthru ( string $command [, int &$return_var] )
Similar to exec and system, the returned value is raw data, such as binary data, such as pictures.

shell_exec (string $cmd)
Execute the command cmd through the shell, and the complete string is used as the return value.

system ( string $command [, int &$return_var] )
The return value after executing the command command. If php is running in server mode, the system will try to automatically refresh the output cache of the

web server.
