Background ========= The PEAR XML-RPC and phpxmlrpc libraries are both PHP implementations of the XML-RPC protocol. Affected packages ================ ------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 dev-php/PEAR-XML_RPC < 1.4.0 > = 1.4.0 2 dev-php/phpxmlrpc < 1.2-r1 > = 1.2-r1 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 affected packages on all of their supported architectures. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Description ========== Stefan Esser of the Hardened-PHP Project discovered that the PEAR XML-RPC and phpxmlrpc libraries were improperly handling XMLRPC requests and responses with malformed nested tags. Impact ===== A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to inject arbitrary PHP script code into eval() statements by sending a specially crafted XML document to web applications making use of these libraries. Workaround ========= There are no knownworkarounds at this time. Resolution ========= All PEAR-XML_RPC users should upgrade to the latest available version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "> =dev-php/PEAR-XML_RPC-1.4.0" All phpxmlrpc users should upgrade to the latest available version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "> =dev-php/phpxmlrpc-1.2-r1" References ========= [ 1 ] CAN-2005-2498 https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CAN-2005-2498 [ 2 ] Hardened-PHP 14/2005 Advisory [ 3 ] Hardened-PHP 15/2005 Advisory Availability =========== This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: https://security.gentoo.org/glsa/200508-13 Concerns? ======== Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.
