Description:
------------
For security reasons, it would be nice to have the option similar to Apache suExec where FPM checks the uid/gid of the script file before executing it, and only allowing scripts to be executed with a matching uid/gid specified in the pool config file.

This would serve as an extra layer of defense against exploit attempts which try to write files via PHP or other CGI scripts as they would be saved with the uid of the webserver. Combined with verbose logging of such requests, this would also serve as an a good indicator that some scripts on the system are insecure.

From a quick glance, that reminds me of safe_mode.  Anyhow, this
feature would require an RFC, so all details could be sufficiently
discussed and clarified.  Anybody is welcome to pursue the RFC
process[1]; for the time being, I suspend this ticket.
