GETENV(3)                  Linux Programmer's Manual                 GETENV(3)

NAME
       getenv, secure_getenv - get an environment variable

SYNOPSIS
       #include <stdlib.h>

       char *getenv(const char *name);

       char *secure_getenv(const char *name);

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       secure_getenv(): _GNU_SOURCE

DESCRIPTION
       The  getenv()  function searches the environment list to find the envi‐
       ronment variable name, and returns a pointer to the corresponding value
       string.

       The GNU-specific secure_getenv() function is just like getenv()  except
       that  it  returns  NULL  in cases where "secure execution" is required.
       Secure execution is required if one of  the  following  conditions  was
       true when the program run by the calling process was loaded:

       *  the  process's  effective  user ID did not match its real user ID or
          the process's effective group ID did not match  its  real  group  ID
          (typically  this  is  the  result of executing a set-user-ID or set-
          group-ID program);

       *  the effective capability bit was set on the executable file; or

       *  the process has a nonempty permitted capability set.

       Secure execution may also be required if triggered by some Linux  secu‐
       rity modules.

       The secure_getenv() function is intended for use in general-purpose li‐
       braries  to  avoid  vulnerabilities  that could occur if set-user-ID or
       set-group-ID programs accidentally trusted the environment.

RETURN VALUE
       The getenv() function returns a pointer to the value  in  the  environ‐
       ment, or NULL if there is no match.

VERSIONS
       secure_getenv() first appeared in glibc 2.17.

CONFORMING TO
       getenv(): POSIX.1-2001, POSIX.1-2008, C89, C99, SVr4, 4.3BSD.

       secure_getenv() is a GNU extension.

NOTES
       The strings in the environment list are of the form name=value.

       As typically implemented, getenv() returns a pointer to a string within
       the  environment  list.   The  caller must take care not to modify this
       string, since that would change the environment of the process.

       The implementation of getenv() is not required to  be  reentrant.   The
       string pointed to by the return value of getenv() may be statically al‐
       located,  and  can  be  modified  by  a  subsequent  call  to getenv(),
       putenv(3), setenv(3), or unsetenv(3).

       The "secure execution" mode of secure_getenv()  is  controlled  by  the
       AT_SECURE flag contained in the auxiliary vector passed from the kernel
       to user space.
