Thank you rasmus, for reply :
1. So how can I use "HTTP Digest Authorization" in PHP script ? (is it
inpossible ? really is no solution, todasy ? or in the future ?)
2. Why is it security problem ? When safe_mode=on, then uid is added to
realm, so other scripts on same shared (ISP) server cannot simulate the
same realm and so steal passwords ?
And at other : when I use "HTTP Basic Authorization", then
$_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_USER"] and $_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_PW"] are set (so may
be steal) when safe_mode=on, but header Authorization is not set.

That would allow you to steal passwords from other scripts on the same
shared server which is exactly what safemode is designed to counteract.
 So no, this won't change.

Description:
------------
Help PHP Developers, please, please

if PHP is running as Apache module in safe_mode=on 
in result of function apache_request_headers() is not included
Authorization header.

When I use "HTTP Digest Authorization" in my PHP script I cannot
validate clients response, because I can not obtain supplied
Authorization header.

Please change behavior of apache_request_headers(), so it hides
Authorization header only if :
(safe_mode=on) && (AuthType is set to [Basic|Digest] in httpd.conf or
.htaccess)
so only if Apache performs authentication

Please rply ...
Thank you

Reproduce code:
---------------
Sample code :
<?php

  $headers=apache_request_headers();
  if (isset($headers["Authorization"])  {
  print_r($headers);
  phpinfo();
  exit;
  }

 if (isset($_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_USER"])) {
  echo $_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_USER"].":".$_SERVER["PHP_AUTH_PW"];
  print_r(apache_request_headers());
  phpinfo();
  exit;
 }

 if (!empty($_SERVER["REMOTE_IDENT"])) {
  echo $_SERVER["REMOTE_IDENT"];
  print_r(apache_request_headers());
  phpinfo();
  exit;
 }

 if (!empty($_SERVER["Authorization"])) {
  echo $_SERVER["Authorization"];
  print_r(apache_request_headers());
  phpinfo();
  exit;
 }

  Header( "HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized");
  Header( "WWW-Authenticate: Digest realm=\"www.myrealm.com\",
opaque=\"opaque\", nonce=\"nonce\", stale=\"false\", qop=\"auth\"");
  print_r(getallheaders());
  exit;
?>
