Description-en: Simple policy for file I/O functions
This defines the policy for file I/O with modules such as
File::Slurp::WithinPolicy. The purpose is to allow systems administrators to
define locations and restrictions for applications' file I/O and give app
developers a policy to follow. Note that the module doesn't ENFORCE the policy
- application developers can choose to ignore it (and systems administrators
can choose not to install their applications if they do!).
.
You may control which policy gets applied by creating a File::Policy::Config
module with an IMPLEMENTATION constant. You may write your own policy as a
module within the File::Policy:: namespace.
.
By default (if no File::Policy::Config is present), the File::Policy::Default
policy gets applied which doesn't impose any restrictions and provides
reasonable default locations for temporary and log files.
.
The motivation behind this module was a standard, flexible approach to allow
a site wide file policy to be defined. This will be most useful in large
environments where a few sysadmins are responsible for code written by many
other people. Simply ensuring that submitted code calls check_safe() ensures
file access is sane, reducing the amount of effort required to do a security
audit.
