PHP exec/system/passthru

Does any one know of any way of running either of these commands from PHP.
I want to be able to set permissions on one certain file if they are incorrect.

This file is set with no way of a user editing it to avoid any security problems.

Tried using sudo but obviously need to enter a password to be able to use this function.

Thanks in advance.
