 Package : php4
 Date    : July 3, 2008
 Affected: Corporate 4.0

 Problem Description:
 
 An integer overflow in the zip_read_entry() function in PHP prior
 to 4.4.5 allowed remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a
 ZIP archive containing a certain type of entry that triggered a heap
 overflow (CVE-2007-1777).
 
 Weaknesses in the GENERATE_SEED macro in PHP prior to 4.4.8 and 5.2.5
 were discovered that could produce a zero seed in rare circumstances on
 32bit systems and generations a portion of zero bits during conversion
 due to insufficient precision on 64bit systems (CVE-2008-2107,
 CVE-2008-2108).
 
 The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
