Description
This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.
1) Deserialization of untrusted data (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9138)
CWE-ID: CWE-502 - Deserialization of Untrusted Data
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to unsafe handling of serialized data when processing property modification during __wakeup(). A remote attacker can pass specially crafted serialized data to the application and cause denial of service attack.
2) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9933)
CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The weakness exists in the gdImageFillToBorder function in gd.c due to stack consumption. A remote attacker can submit a specially crafted imagefilltoborder call that triggers use of a negative color value and cause the service to crash.
3) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2016-9934)
CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.
The weakness exists in ext/wddx/wddx.c due to NULL pointer dereference. A remote attacker can submit crafted serialized data in a wddxPacket XML document, as demonstrated by a PDORow string, and cause the service to crash.
