Alaya Webdav Server 0.0.4 Publishing Web server

Alaya is an original chrooting http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/17117.html ">web server based on WebDAV support. It provides HTTPS and HTTP services that can be used to authenticate files using Pam, etc, passwd, or using your own identity, allowing "native" users to access only Alaya content. This is an easy way to share content for WebDAV, although it can be configured in one configuration file, but it only needs to use one command line to switch the configuration.

Alaya has been using chroots to ensure that malicious users cannot use the "..." URL to access illegal files, and that users may inadvertently leave files outside the chroot environment. It has a "chhome" mode where chroots will get the contents of its home directory Users and Services. It supports trusted paths for CGI scripts and directories other than read-only shares in Chroot (when access to shared content Chhome mode is allowed).

What is chrooting?

The directive chroot is the abbreviation for "Change Root", designed for the exchange itself root (root) system environment. It is the relative/(root directory) that changes. For example, the path of a file is actually/home/wuming/hello.txt in an existing system. I am now chroot/home/wuming the directory, then the path of this file in my chrooted environment is/hello.txt

The Chroot itself aims to create an impermeable (theoretically) "prison-style" protective layer. Do not allow access to any other file data in chroot environments. For example, under the Chroot/home/wuming directory, I will not be able to access any files other than/home/wuming. In general, it is restricted to users accessing system files in a multiuser system. Chroot can also be used to limit the various types of background programs, thus avoiding hacker intrusion opportunities. Or it makes it more difficult for intruders to get root privileges. For example, the system uses a vulnerable remote service, if hacked to get the shell, but the shell is not included in its own system, thus preventing hackers access to other system files. Although many people claim to be able to break through the chroot jail, most of the time they break through a shell. There is no such problem in the example we are discussing, so it is very difficult to break the daemon environment.
