Description
This security bulletin contains information about 4 vulnerabilities.
1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2006-4485)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: 9.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
The stripos function in PHP before 5.1.5 has unknown impact and attack vectors related to an out-of-bounds read.
2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2006-4486)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: 6.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to corrupt data.
Integer overflow in memory allocation routines in PHP before 5.1.6, when running on a 64-bit system, allows context-dependent attackers to bypass the memory_limit restriction.
3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2006-4625)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: 4.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a local user to read and manipulate data.
PHP 4.x up to 4.4.4 and PHP 5 up to 5.1.6 allows local users to bypass certain Apache HTTP Server httpd.conf options, such as safe_mode and open_basedir, via the ini_restore function, which resets the values to their php.ini (Master Value) defaults.
4) Code Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2006-4812)
CWE-ID: CWE-94 - Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')
CVSSv4: 9.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code.
Integer overflow in PHP 5 up to 5.1.6 and 4 before 4.3.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an argument to the unserialize PHP function with a large value for the number of array elements, which triggers the overflow in the Zend Engine ecalloc function (Zend/zend_alloc.c).
