<title>PHP: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
<synopsis>
Several vulnerabilities were found and fixed in PHP, ranging from an
information leak and a safe_mode restriction bypass to a potential 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>
Stefan Esser and Marcus Boerger reported several different issues in
the unserialize() function, including serious exploitable bugs in the
way it handles negative references (CAN-2004-1019).
</p>
<p>
Stefan Esser also discovered that the pack() and unpack() functions are
subject to integer overflows that can lead to a heap buffer overflow
and a heap information leak. Finally, he found that the way
multithreaded PHP handles safe_mode_exec_dir restrictions can be
bypassed, and that various path truncation issues also allow to bypass
path and safe_mode restrictions.
</p>
<p>
Ilia Alshanetsky found a stack overflow issue in the exif_read_data()
function (CAN-2004-1065). Finally, Daniel Fabian found that addslashes
and magic_quotes_gpc do not properly escape null characters and that
magic_quotes_gpc contains a bug that could lead to one level directory
traversal.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="high">
<p>
These issues could be exploited by a remote attacker to retrieve web
server heap information, bypass safe_mode or path restrictions and
potentially execute arbitrary code with the rights of the web server
running a PHP application.
</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 &quot;&gt;=dev-php/php-4.3.10&quot;</code>
<p>
All mod_php users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=dev-php/mod_php-4.3.10&quot;</code>
<p>
All php-cgi users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=dev-php/php-cgi-4.3.10&quot;</code>
</resolution>
