CVE ID : CVE-2007-1286 CVE-2007-1375 CVE-2007-1376 CVE-2007-1380 CVE-2007-1453 CVE-2007-1454 CVE-2007-1521 CVE-2007-1583 CVE-2007-1700 CVE-2007-1718 CVE-2007-1777 CVE-2007-1824 CVE-2007-1887 CVE-2007-1889 CVE-2007-1900 CVE-2007-2509 CVE-2007-2510 CVE-2007-2511
Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in PHP, a
server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language, which may lead to the
execution of arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
project identifies the following problems:
CVE-2007-1286
Stefan Esser discovered an overflow in the object reference handling
code of the unserialize() function, which allows the execution of
arbitrary code if malformed input is passed from an application.
CVE-2007-1375
Stefan Esser discovered that an integer overflow in the substr_compare()
function allows information disclosure of heap memory.
CVE-2007-1376
Stefan Esser discovered that insufficient validation of shared memory
functions allows the disclosure of heap memory.
CVE-2007-1380
Stefan Esser discovered that the session handler performs
insufficient validation of variable name length values, which allows
information disclosure through a heap information leak.
CVE-2007-1453
Stefan Esser discovered that the filtering framework performs insufficient
input validation, which allows the execution of arbitrary code through a
buffer underflow.
CVE-2007-1454
Stefan Esser discovered that the filtering framework can be bypassed
with a special whitespace character.
CVE-2007-1521
Stefan Esser discovered a double free vulnerability in the
session_regenerate_id() function, which allows the execution of
arbitrary code.
CVE-2007-1583
Stefan Esser discovered that a programming error in the mb_parse_str()
function allows the activation of "register_globals".
CVE-2007-1700
Stefan Esser discovered that the session extension incorrectly maintains
the reference count of session variables, which allows the execution of
arbitrary code.
CVE-2007-1718
Stefan Esser discovered that the mail() function performs
insufficient validation of folded mail headers, which allows mail
header injection.
CVE-2007-1777
Stefan Esser discovered that the extension to handle ZIP archives
performs insufficient length checks, which allows the execution of
arbitrary code.
CVE-2007-1824
Stefan Esser discovered an off-by-one in the filtering framework, which
allows the execution of arbitrary code.
CVE-2007-1887
Stefan Esser discovered that a buffer overflow in the sqlite extension
allows the execution of arbitrary code.
CVE-2007-1889
Stefan Esser discovered that the PHP memory manager performs an
incorrect type cast, which allows the execution of arbitrary code
through buffer overflows.
CVE-2007-1900
Stefan Esser discovered that incorrect validation in the email filter
extension allowed the injection of mail headers.
CVE-2007-2509
It was discovered that missing input sanitising inside the ftp
extension permits an attacker to execute arbitrary FTP commands.
This requires the attacker to already have access to the FTP
server.
CVE-2007-2510
It was discovered that a buffer overflow in the SOAP extension permits
the execution of arbitrary code.
CVE-2007-2511
A buffer overflow was discovered in the user_filter_factory_create.
For the testing distribution (lenny) this is fixed in version
5.2.0-10+lenny1
Packages for the alpha, hppa, mipsel, and powerpc architectures are still
missing and will be released when they become available.
For the unstable distribution (sid) this is fixed in version 5.2.2-1
This upgrade is recommended if you use php5.
