Fedora 26: 2018-c71dd2e199 Critical: PHP FPM Access Control Issues

fedora
Calendar Grey April 6, 2018
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Essential security patch for PHP on Fedora 26, implementing various corrections to enhance both security and system reliability.
**PHP version 7.1.16** (29 Mar 2018) **Core:** * Fixed bug php#76025 (Segfault while throwing exception in error_handler)

Summary

PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it

easy for developers to write dynamically generated web pages. PHP also

offers built-in database integration for several commercial and

non-commercial database management systems, so writing a

database-enabled webpage with PHP is fairly simple. The most common

use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts.

The php package contains the module (often referred to as mod_php)

which adds support for the PHP language to Apache HTTP Server.

**PHP version 7.1.16** (29 Mar 2018) **Core:** * Fixed bug php#76025 (Segfault

while throwing exception in error_handler). (Dmitry, Laruence) * Fixed bug

php#76044 ('date: illegal option -- -' in ./configure on FreeBSD). (Anatol)

**FPM:** * Fixed bug php#75605 (Dumpable FPM child processes allow bypassing

opcache access controls). (Jakub Zelenka) **GD:** * Fixed bug php#73957

(signed integer conversion in imagescale()). (cmb) **ODBC:** * Fixed bug

php#76088 (ODBC functions are not available by default on Windows). (cmb)

**Opcache:** * Fixed bug php#76074 (opcache corrupts variable in for-loop).

(Bob) **Phar:** * Fixed bug php#76085 (Segmentation fault in buildFromIterator

when directory name contains a \n). (Laruence) **Standard:** * Fixed bug

php#74139 (mail.add_x_header default inconsistent with docs). (cmb) * Fixed bug

php#76068 (parse_ini_string fails to parse "[foo]\nbar=1|>baz" with segfault).
