| Description: | Summary:
The remote host is missing an update to php
announced via advisory MDVSA-2009:023.
Vulnerability Insight:
A vulnerability in PHP allowed context-dependent attackers to cause
a denial of service (crash) via a certain long string in the glob()
or fnmatch() functions (CVE-2007-4782).
A vulnerability in the cURL library in PHP allowed context-dependent
attackers to bypass safe_mode and open_basedir restrictions and read
arbitrary files using a special URL request (CVE-2007-4850).
An integer overflow in PHP allowed context-dependent attackers to
cause a denial of service via a special printf() format parameter
(CVE-2008-1384).
A stack-based buffer overflow in the FastCGI SAPI in PHP has unknown
impact and attack vectors (CVE-2008-2050).
Tavis Ormandy of the Google Security Team discovered a heap-based
buffer overflow when compiling certain regular expression patterns.
This could be used by a malicious attacker by sending a specially
crafted regular expression to an application using the PCRE library,
resulting in the possible execution of arbitrary code or a denial of
service (CVE-2008-2371). PHP in Corporate Server 4.0 is affected by
this issue.
A buffer overflow in the imageloadfont() function in PHP allowed
context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash)
and potentially execute arbitrary code via a crafted font file
(CVE-2008-3658).
A buffer overflow in the memnstr() function allowed context-dependent
attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and potentially execute
arbitrary code via the delimiter argument to the explode() function
(CVE-2008-3659).
PHP, when used as a FastCGI module, allowed remote attackers to cause
a denial of service (crash) via a request with multiple dots preceding
the extension (CVE-2008-3660).
An array index error in the imageRotate() function in PHP allowed
context-dependent attackers to read the contents of arbitrary memory
locations via a crafted value of the third argument to the function
for an indexed image (CVE-2008-5498).
The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
Affected: Corporate 4.0
Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
