Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:126
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________
Package : php
Date : July 3, 2008
Affected: 2007.1
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
A number of vulnerabilities have been found and corrected in PHP:
PHP 5.2.1 would allow context-dependent attackers to read portions
of heap memory by executing certain scripts with a serialized data
input string beginning with 'S:', which did not properly track the
number of input bytes being processed (CVE-2007-1649).
A vulnerability in the chunk_split() function in PHP prior to 5.2.4
has unknown impact and attack vectors, related to an incorrect size
calculation (CVE-2007-4660).
The htmlentities() and htmlspecialchars() functions in PHP prior to
5.2.5 accepted partial multibyte sequences, which has unknown impact
and attack vectors (CVE-2007-5898).
The output_add_rewrite_var() function in PHP prior to 5.2.5 rewrites
local forms in which the ACTION attribute references a non-local URL,
which could allow a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive
information by reading the requests for this URL (CVE-2007-5899).
The escapeshellcmd() API function in PHP prior to 5.2.6 has unknown
impact and context-dependent attack vectors related to incomplete
multibyte characters (CVE-2008-2051).
Weaknesses in the GENERATE_SEED macro in PHP prior to 4.4.8 and 5.2.5
were discovered that could produce a zero seed in rare circumstances on
32bit systems and generations a portion of zero bits during conversion
due to insufficient precision on 64bit systems (CVE-2008-2107,
CVE-2008-2108).
The IMAP module in PHP uses obsolete API calls that allow
context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (crash)
via a long IMAP request (CVE-2008-2829).
The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
