<title>PHP: Vulnerabilities in included PCRE and XML-RPC libraries</title>
<synopsis>
PHP makes use of an affected PCRE library and ships with an affected
XML-RPC library and is therefore potentially vulnerable to remote execution
of arbitrary code.

<p>
PHP is a general-purpose scripting language widely used to develop
web-based applications. It can run inside a web server using the
mod_php module or the CGI version of PHP, or can run stand-alone in a
CLI.
</p>

<description>
<p>
PHP makes use of a private copy of libpcre which is subject to an
integer overflow leading to a heap overflow (see GLSA 200508-17). It
also ships with an XML-RPC library affected by a script injection
vulnerability (see GLSA 200508-13).
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
An attacker could target a PHP-based web application that would
use untrusted data as regular expressions, potentially resulting in the
execution of arbitrary code. If web applications make use of the
XML-RPC library shipped with PHP, they are also vulnerable to remote
execution of arbitrary PHP code.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All PHP users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose dev-php/php</code>
<p>
All mod_php users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose dev-php/mod_php</code>
<p>
All php-cgi users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose dev-php/php-cgi</code>
