Hmm, in simplesamlphp they do this check as:

if (php_sapi_name() === 'cli' || defined('STDIN')) {
...
}

As there are a few places in mahara where we check the CLI we should
make a function to check this.

I'll update the patch to handle these places.

 - can you please test https://reviews.mahara.org/#/c/10578/3 to see if
the changes work for your environment please?

Title:
  cron.php with '$cfg->urlsecret' dosen't work on cronjob under PHP
  FastCGI enviroment.

Status in Mahara:
  New

Bug description:
  When we set $cfg->urlsecret on config.php, cron.php doesn't work on
  cronjob under PHP FastCGI environment.

  So we need to add one more condition to cron.php as below.

  File to modify:
  lib/cron.php

  Line:
  40

  [before]
  if (php_sapi_name() != 'cli' && get_config('urlsecret') !== null) {
      $urlsecret = param_alphanumext('urlsecret', -1);
      if ($urlsecret !== get_config('urlsecret')) {
          die_info(get_string('accessdeniednourlsecret', 'error'));
      }
  }

  [after]
  if (php_sapi_name() != 'cli' && substr(php_sapi_name(), 0, 3) !== 'cgi' && get_config('urlsecret') !== null) {
      $urlsecret = param_alphanumext('urlsecret', -1);
      if ($urlsecret !== get_config('urlsecret')) {
          die_info(get_string('accessdeniednourlsecret', 'error'));
      }
  }
