Fedora Core 5: 2007-456 Moderate: PHP Denial Of Service

fedora
Calendar Grey April 18, 2007
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Addresses vulnerabilities in PHP for Fedora Core 5, tackling severe denial of service and execution threats. Upgrade immediately!
This update fixes a number of security issues in PHP. A denial of service flaw was found in the way PHP processed a deeply nested array

Summary

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

easy for developers to write dynamically generated webpages. 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

mod_php module enables the Apache Web server to understand and process

the embedded PHP language in Web pages.

This update fixes a number of security issues in PHP.

A denial of service flaw was found in the way PHP processed

a deeply nested array. A remote attacker could cause the PHP

interpreter to crash by submitting an input variable with a

deeply nested array. (CVE-2007-1285)

A flaw was found in the way the mbstring extension set

global variables. A script which used the mb_parse_str()

function to set global variables could be forced to enable

the register_globals configuration option, possibly

resulting in global variable injection. (CVE-2007-1583)

A flaw was discovered in the way PHP's mail() function

processed header data. If a script sent mail using a Subject

header containing a string from an untrusted source, a

remote attacker could send bulk e-mail to unintended

recipients. (CVE-2007-1718)

A heap based buffer overflow flaw was discovered in PHP's gd

extension. A script that could be forced to process WBMP

images from an untrusted source could result in arbitrary

code execution. (CVE-2007-1001)

A buffer over-read flaw was discovered in PHP's gd

extension. A script that could be forced to write arbitrary

strings using a JIS font from an untrusted source could

cause the PHP interpreter to crash. (CVE-2007-0455)
