Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2001-0108)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

PHP Apache module 4.0.4 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass .htaccess access restrictions via a malformed HTTP request on an unrestricted page that causes PHP to use those access controls on the next page that is requested.


2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2001-1385)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to gain access to sensitive information.

The Apache module for PHP 4.0.0 through PHP 4.0.4, when disabled with the 'engine = off' option for a virtual host, may disable PHP for other virtual hosts, which could cause Apache to serve the source code of PHP scripts.
