That seems so obvious I think we're missing something

Whatever, we have a suspect.

Bring in GDB to do the interrogation! And perhaps also call Nice, he can play the good cop...

Forgive me my ignorance, but since Apache is running as root, couldn't PHP inherit it's permissions?

[-] lawrence@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

The Apache main process runs as root. When it receives a request, it spawns a child process that doesn't run as root. PHP runs as the same user as the Apache child process.

Or PHP runs in its own fastcgi like process under a different account.
