PHP Toolkit is a utility to manage parallel installations of PHP within
Gentoo. It is executed by the PHP ebuilds at setup.

<description>
<p>
Toni Arnold, David Sveningsson, Michal Bartoszkiewicz, and Joseph
reported that php-select does not quote parameters passed to the "tr"
command, which could convert the "-D PHP5" argument in the
"APACHE2_OPTS" setting in the file /etc/conf.d/apache2 to lower case.
</p>
</description>
<impact type="normal">
<p>
An attacker could entice a system administrator to run "<i>emerge
php</i>" or call "<i>php-select -t apache2 php5</i>" directly in a
directory containing a lower case single-character named file, which
would prevent Apache from loading mod_php and thereby disclose PHP
source code and cause a Denial of Service.
</p>
</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
Do not run "emerge" or "php-select" from a working directory which
contains a lower case single-character named file.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
<p>
All PHP Toolkit users should upgrade to the latest version:
</p>
<code>
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-admin/php-toolkit-1.0.1&quot;</code>
</resolution>
