+# PHP Phar Stream Wrapper
+
+## Abstract & History
+
+Based on Sam Thomas' findings concerning
+[insecure deserialization in combination with obfuscation strategies](https://blog.secarma.co.uk/labs/near-phar-dangerous-unserialization-wherever-you-are)
+allowing to hide Phar files inside valid image resources, the TYPO3 project
+decided back then to introduce a `PharStreamWrapper` to intercept invocations
+of the `phar://` stream in PHP and only allow usage for defined locations in
+the file system.
+
+Since the TYPO3 mission statement is **inspiring people to share**, we thought
+it would be helpful for others to release our `PharStreamWrapper` as standalone
+package to the PHP community.
+
+The mentioned security issue was reported to TYPO3 on 10th June 2018 by Sam Thomas
+and has been addressed concerning the specific attack vector and for this generic
+`PharStreamWrapper` in TYPO3 versions 7.6.30 LTS, 8.7.17 LTS and 9.3.1 on 12th
+July 2018.
+
+* https://typo3.org/security/advisory/typo3-core-sa-2018-002/
+* https://blog.secarma.co.uk/labs/near-phar-dangerous-unserialization-wherever-you-are
+* https://youtu.be/GePBmsNJw6Y
+
+## License
+
+In general the TYPO3 core is released under the GNU General Public License version
+2 or any later version (`GPL-2.0-or-later`). In order to avoid licensing issues and
+incompatibilities this `PharStreamWrapper` is licenced under the MIT License. In case
+you duplicate or modify source code, credits are not required but really appreciated.
+
+## Credits
+
+Thanks to [Alex Pott](https://github.com/alexpott), Drupal for creating
+back-ports of all sources in order to provide compatibility with PHP v5.3.
+
+## Installation
+
+The `PharStreamWrapper` is provided as composer package `typo3/phar-stream-wrapper`
+and has minimum requirements of PHP v5.3 ([`v2`](https://github.com/TYPO3/phar-stream-wrapper/tree/v2) branch) and PHP v7.0 ([`master`](https://github.com/TYPO3/phar-stream-wrapper) branch).
+
+### Installation for PHP v7.0
+
+```
+composer require typo3/phar-stream-wrapper ^3.0
+```
+
+### Installation for PHP v5.3
+
+```
+composer require typo3/phar-stream-wrapper ^2.0
+```
+
+## Example
+
+The following example is bundled within this package, the shown
+`PharExtensionInterceptor` denies all stream wrapper invocations files
+not having the `.phar` suffix. Interceptor logic has to be individual and
+adjusted to according requirements.
+
+```
+$behavior = new \TYPO3\PharStreamWrapper\Behavior();
+Manager::initialize(
+    $behavior->withAssertion(new PharExtensionInterceptor())
+);
+
+if (in_array('phar', stream_get_wrappers())) {
+    stream_wrapper_unregister('phar');
+    stream_wrapper_register('phar', 'TYPO3\\PharStreamWrapper\\PharStreamWrapper');
+}
+```
+
+* `PharStreamWrapper` defined as class reference will be instantiated each time
+  `phar://` streams shall be processed.
+* `Manager` as singleton pattern being called by `PharStreamWrapper` instances
+  in order to retrieve individual behavior and settings.
+* `Behavior` holds reference to interceptor(s) that shall assert correct/allowed
+  invocation of a given `$path` for a given `$command`. Interceptors implement
+  the interface `Assertable`. Interceptors can act individually on following
+  commands or handle all of them in case not defined specifically:  
+  + `COMMAND_DIR_OPENDIR`
+  + `COMMAND_MKDIR`
+  + `COMMAND_RENAME`
+  + `COMMAND_RMDIR`
+  + `COMMAND_STEAM_METADATA`
+  + `COMMAND_STREAM_OPEN`
+  + `COMMAND_UNLINK`
+  + `COMMAND_URL_STAT`
+
+## Interceptor
+
+The following interceptor is shipped with the package and ready to use in order
+to block any Phar invocation of files not having a `.phar` suffix. Besides that
+individual interceptors are possible of course.
+
+```
+class PharExtensionInterceptor implements Assertable
+{
+    /**
+     * Determines whether the base file name has a ".phar" suffix.
+     *
+     * @param string $path
+     * @param string $command
+     * @return bool
+     * @throws Exception
+     */
+    public function assert($path, $command)
+    {
+        if ($this->baseFileContainsPharExtension($path)) {
+            return true;
+        }
+        throw new Exception(
+            sprintf(
+                'Unexpected file extension in "%s"',
+                $path
+            ),
+            1535198703
+        );
+    }
+
+    /**
+     * @param string $path
+     * @return bool
+     */
+    private function baseFileContainsPharExtension($path)
+    {
+        $baseFile = Helper::determineBaseFile($path);
+        if ($baseFile === null) {
+            return false;
+        }
+        $fileExtension = pathinfo($baseFile, PATHINFO_EXTENSION);
+        return strtolower($fileExtension) === 'phar';
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Helper
+
+* `Helper::determineBaseFile(string $path)`: Determines base file that can be
+  accessed using the regular file system. For instance the following path
+  `phar:///home/user/bundle.phar/content.txt` would be resolved to
+  `/home/user/bundle.phar`.
+* `Helper::resetOpCache()`: Resets PHP's OPcache if enabled as work-around for
+  issues in `include()` or `require()` calls and OPcache delivering wrong
+  results. More details can be found in PHP's bug tracker, for instance like
+  https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66569
+
+## Security Contact
+
+In case of finding additional security issues in the TYPO3 project or in this
+`PharStreamWrapper` package in particular, please get in touch with the
+[TYPO3 Security Team](mailto:security@typo3.org).
