Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11045)

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

In PHP versions 7.2.x below 7.2.26, 7.3.x below 7.3.13 and 7.4.0, PHP DirectoryIterator class accepts filenames with embedded byte and treats them as terminating at that byte. This could lead to security vulnerabilities, e.g. in applications checking paths that the code is allowed to access.


2) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11046)

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

In PHP versions 7.2.x below 7.2.26, 7.3.x below 7.3.13 and 7.4.0, PHP bcmath extension functions on some systems, including Windows, can be tricked into reading beyond the allocated space by supplying it with string containing characters that are identified as numeric by the OS but aren't ASCII numbers. This can read to disclosure of the content of some memory locations.


3) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11047)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to #BASIC_IMPACT#.

When PHP EXIF extension is parsing EXIF information from an image, e.g. via exif_read_data() function, in PHP versions 7.2.x below 7.2.26, 7.3.x below 7.3.13 and 7.4.0 it is possible to supply it with data what will cause it to read past the allocated buffer. This may lead to information disclosure or crash.


4) Double Free (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11049)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within mail() function implementation. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted header in lowercase, trigger double free error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


5) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-11050)

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to #BASIC_IMPACT#.

When PHP EXIF extension is parsing EXIF information from an image, e.g. via exif_read_data() function, in PHP versions 7.2.x below 7.2.26, 7.3.x below 7.3.13 and 7.4.0 it is possible to supply it with data what will cause it to read past the allocated buffer. This may lead to information disclosure or crash.


6) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7059)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information or perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when using the "fgetss()" function to read data with stripping tags. A remote attacker can supply data that will cause this function to read past the allocated buffer, trigger out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system or crash the application.


7) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-7060)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to gain access to potentially sensitive information or perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary condition when using certain "mbstring" functions to convert multibyte encodings. A remote attacker can supply data that will cause function "mbfl_filt_conv_big5_wchar" to read past the allocated buffer, trigger out-of-bounds read error and read contents of memory on the system or crash the application.
