NASL family Mandriva Local Security Checks NASL id MANDRAKE_MDKSA-2003-082.NASL description A vulnerability was discovered in the transparent session ID support in PHP4 prior to version 4.3.2. It did not properly escape user- supplied input prior to inserting it in the generated web page. This could be exploited by an attacker to execute embedded scripts within the context of the generated HTML (CVE-2003-0442). As well, two vulnerabilities had not been patched in the PHP packages included with Mandrake Linux 8.2: The mail() function did not filter ASCII control filters from its arguments, which could allow an attacker to modify the mail message content (CVE-2002-0986). Another vulnerability in the mail() function would allow a remote attacker to bypass safe mode restrictions and modify the command line arguments passed to the MTA in the fifth argument (CVE-2002-0985). All users are encouraged to upgrade to these patched packages. Update : The packages for Mandrake Linux 8.2 and Multi-Network Firewall 8.2, due to improper BuildRequires did not include mail() support. This update corrects that problem. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 14064 published 2004-07-31 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2004-2019 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/14064 title Mandrake Linux Security Advisory : php (MDKSA-2003:082-1) code #%NASL_MIN_LEVEL 80502 # # (C) Tenable Network Security, Inc. # # The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were # extracted from Mandrake Linux Security Advisory MDKSA-2003:082. # The text itself is copyright (C) Mandriva S.A. # include("compat.inc"); if (description) { script_id(14064); script_version ("1.25"); script_cvs_date("Date: 2019/08/02 13:32:46"); script_cve_id("CVE-2002-0985", "CVE-2002-0986", "CVE-2003-0442"); script_xref(name:"MDKSA", value:"2003:082"); script_xref(name:"MDKSA", value:"2003:082-1"); script_name(english:"Mandrake Linux Security Advisory : php (MDKSA-2003:082-1)"); script_summary(english:"Checks rpm output for the updated packages"); script_set_attribute( attribute:"synopsis", value: "The remote Mandrake Linux host is missing one or more security updates." ); script_set_attribute( attribute:"description", value: "A vulnerability was discovered in the transparent session ID support in PHP4 prior to version 4.3.2.
