Are there specific PHP functions or features that are not restricted by safe_mode and can be used as a workaround for file access limitations?

When safe_mode is enabled in PHP, it restricts file access and certain functions that can be potentially harmful. To work around these limitations, you can use functions that are not restricted by safe_mode, such as file_get_contents() and file_put_contents(). These functions allow you to read and write files without being blocked by safe_mode. 

// Read file contents using file_get_contents
$file_contents = file_get_contents('/path/to/file.txt');
echo $file_contents;

// Write to a file using file_put_contents
$data = 'Hello, World!';
file_put_contents('/path/to/file.txt', $data);
