Do I have an option to forbid a user group or a sftpuser to set chmod +x?

The user shall be allowed to upload media files, but no php scripts to run for example.

Yes : You can use a dedicated partition for sftpuser.

Once done, just disable executables on this partition ("noexec" in /etc/fstab).

This would look like :


/dev/examplevg/sftpuser        /home/sftpuser                   ext3    defaults,noexec 1 2

Note that also have to chroot sftpuser and since sftpuser just needs to upload php files, it is also a good idea to restrict the account to sftp : chroot + only sftp
