CVE ID         : CVE-2018-10545 CVE-2018-10547 CVE-2018-10548

Several issues have been discovered in PHP (recursive acronym for PHP:
Hypertext Preprocessor), a widely-used open source general-purpose
scripting language that is especially suited for web development and can
be embedded into HTML.

CVE-2018-10545

  Dumpable FPM child processes allow bypassing opcache access
  controls because fpm_unix.c makes a PR_SET_DUMPABLE prctl call,
  allowing one user (in a multiuser environment) to obtain sensitive
  information from the process memory of a second user's PHP
  applications by running gcore on the PID of the PHP-FPM worker
  process.

CVE-2018-10547

  There is a reflected XSS on the PHAR 403 and 404 error pages via
  request data of a request for a .phar file. NOTE: this vulnerability
  exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2018-5712.

CVE-2018-10548

  ext/ldap/ldap.c allows remote LDAP servers to cause a denial of
  service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) because of
  mishandling of the ldap_get_dn return value.

For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
5.4.45-0+deb7u14.

We recommend that you upgrade your php5 packages.
