Fedora This update fixes a number of security issues in PHP. A denial of service flaw was found in the way PHP processed a deeply nested array. A remote attacker could cause the PHP interpreter to crash by submitting an input variable with a deeply nested array. (CVE-2007-1285) A flaw was found in the way the mbstring extension set global variables. A script which used the mb_parse_str() function to set global variables could be forced to enable the register_globals configuration option, possibly resulting in global variable injection. (CVE-2007-1583)

Fedora Update Notification
FEDORA-2007-455
2007-04-18
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Product     : Fedora Core 5
Name        : php
Version     : 5.1.6
Release     : 1.5
Summary     : The PHP HTML-embedded scripting language. (PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor)
Description :
PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it
easy for developers to write dynamically generated webpages. PHP also
offers built-in database integration for several commercial and
non-commercial database management systems, so writing a
database-enabled webpage with PHP is fairly simple. The most common
use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts. The
mod_php module enables the Apache Web server to understand and process
the embedded PHP language in Web pages.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

This update fixes a number of security issues in PHP.

A denial of service flaw was found in the way PHP processed
a deeply nested array. A remote attacker could cause the PHP
interpreter to crash by submitting an input variable with a
deeply nested array. (CVE-2007-1285)

A flaw was found in the way the mbstring extension set
global variables. A script which used the mb_parse_str()
function to set global variables could be forced to enable
the register_globals configuration option, possibly
resulting in global variable injection. (CVE-2007-1583)

A flaw was discovered in the way PHP's mail() function
processed header data. If a script sent mail using a Subject
header containing a string from an untrusted source, a
remote attacker could send bulk e-mail to unintended
recipients. (CVE-2007-1718)

A heap based buffer overflow flaw was discovered in PHP's gd
extension. A script that could be forced to process WBMP
images from an untrusted source could result in arbitrary
code execution. (CVE-2007-1001)

A buffer over-read flaw was discovered in PHP's gd
extension. A script that could be forced to write arbitrary
strings using a JIS font from an untrusted source could
cause the PHP interpreter to crash. (CVE-2007-0455)
