    descriptionThe remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200710-02 (PHP: Multiple vulnerabilities) Several vulnerabilities were found in PHP. Mattias Bengtsson and Philip Olausson reported integer overflows in the gdImageCreate() and gdImageCreateTrueColor() functions of the GD library which can cause heap-based buffer overflows (CVE-2007-3996). Gerhard Wagner discovered an integer overflow in the chunk_split() function that can lead to a heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2007-2872). Its incomplete fix caused incorrect buffer size calculation due to precision loss, also resulting in a possible heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2007-4661 and CVE-2007-4660). A buffer overflow in the sqlite_decode_binary() of the SQLite extension found by Stefan Esser that was addressed in PHP 5.2.1 was not fixed correctly (CVE-2007-1887). Stefan Esser discovered an error in the zend_alter_ini_entry() function handling a memory_limit violation (CVE-2007-4659). Stefan Esser also discovered a flaw when handling interruptions with userspace error handlers that can be exploited to read arbitrary heap memory (CVE-2007-1883). Disclosure of sensitive memory can also be triggered due to insufficient boundary checks in the strspn() and strcspn() functions, an issue discovered by Mattias Bengtsson and Philip Olausson (CVE-2007-4657) Stefan Esser reported incorrect validation in the FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL filter of the Filter extension allowing arbitrary email header injection (CVE-2007-1900). NOTE: This CVE was referenced, but not fixed in GLSA 200705-19. Stanislav Malyshev found an error with unknown impact in the money_format() function when processing

        Several vulnerabilities were found in PHP. Mattias Bengtsson and Philip
        Olausson reported integer overflows in the gdImageCreate() and
        gdImageCreateTrueColor() functions of the GD library which can cause
        heap-based buffer overflows (CVE-2007-3996). Gerhard Wagner discovered
        an integer overflow in the chunk_split() function that can lead to a
        heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2007-2872). Its incomplete fix caused
        incorrect buffer size calculation due to precision loss, also resulting
        in a possible heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-2007-4661 and
        CVE-2007-4660). A buffer overflow in the sqlite_decode_binary() of the
        SQLite extension found by Stefan Esser that was addressed in PHP 5.2.1
        was not fixed correctly (CVE-2007-1887).
        Stefan Esser discovered an error in the zend_alter_ini_entry() function
        handling a memory_limit violation (CVE-2007-4659). Stefan Esser also
        discovered a flaw when handling interruptions with userspace error
        handlers that can be exploited to read arbitrary heap memory
        (CVE-2007-1883). Disclosure of sensitive memory can also be triggered
        due to insufficient boundary checks in the strspn() and strcspn()
        functions, an issue discovered by Mattias Bengtsson and Philip Olausson
        (CVE-2007-4657)
        Stefan Esser reported incorrect validation in the FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL
        filter of the Filter extension allowing arbitrary email header
        injection (CVE-2007-1900). NOTE: This CVE was referenced, but not fixed
        in GLSA 200705-19.
        Stanislav Malyshev found an error with unknown impact in the
        money_format() function when processing '%i' and '%n' tokens
        (CVE-2007-4658). zatanzlatan reported a buffer overflow in the
        php_openssl_make_REQ() function with unknown impact when providing a
        manipulated SSL configuration file (CVE-2007-4662). Possible memory
        corruption when trying to read EXIF data in exif_read_data() and
        exif_thumbnail() occurred with unknown impact.
        Several vulnerabilities that allow bypassing of open_basedir and other
        restrictions were reported, including the glob() function
        (CVE-2007-4663), the session_save_path(), ini_set(), and error_log()
        functions which can allow local command execution (CVE-2007-3378),
        involving the readfile() function (CVE-2007-3007), via the Session
        extension (CVE-2007-4652), via the MySQL extension (CVE-2007-3997) and
        in the dl() function which allows loading extensions outside of the
        specified directory (CVE-2007-4825).
        Multiple Denial of Service vulnerabilities were discovered, including a
        long 'library' parameter in the dl() function (CVE-2007-4887), in
        several iconv and xmlrpc functions (CVE-2007-4840 and CVE-2007-4783),
        in the setlocale() function (CVE-2007-4784), in the glob() and
        fnmatch() function (CVE-2007-4782 and CVE-2007-3806), a floating point
        exception in the wordwrap() function (CVE-2007-3998), a stack
        exhaustion via deeply nested arrays (CVE-2007-4670), an infinite loop
        caused by a specially crafted PNG image in the png_read_info() function
        of libpng (CVE-2007-2756) and several issues related to array
        conversion.
      
    Impact :
    
        Remote attackers might be able to exploit these issues in PHP
        applications making use of the affected functions, potentially
        resulting in the execution of arbitrary code, Denial of Service,

    descriptionThe remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200705-19 (PHP: Multiple vulnerabilities) Several vulnerabilities were found in PHP, most of them during the Month Of PHP Bugs (MOPB) by Stefan Esser. The most severe of these vulnerabilities are integer overflows in wbmp.c from the GD library (CVE-2007-1001) and in the substr_compare() PHP 5 function (CVE-2007-1375). Ilia Alshanetsky also reported a buffer overflow in the make_http_soap_request() and in the user_filter_factory_create() functions (CVE-2007-2510, CVE-2007-2511), and Stanislav Malyshev discovered another buffer overflow in the bundled XMLRPC library (CVE-2007-1864). Additionally, the session_regenerate_id() and the array_user_key_compare() functions contain a double-free vulnerability (CVE-2007-1484, CVE-2007-1521). Finally, there exist implementation errors in the Zend engine, in the mb_parse_str(), the unserialize() and the mail() functions and other elements. Impact : Remote attackers might be able to exploit these issues in PHP applications making use of the affected functions, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code, Denial of Service, execution of scripted contents in the context of the affected site, security bypass or information leak. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time.

    NASL idMANDRAKE_MDKSA-2007-187.NASL
    descriptionNumerous vulnerabilities were discovered in the PHP scripting language that are corrected with this update. An integer overflow in the substr_compare() function allows context-dependent attackers to read sensitive memory via a large value in the length argument. This only affects PHP5 (CVE-2007-1375). A stack-based buffer overflow in the zip:// URI wrapper in PECL ZIP 1.8.3 and earlier allowes remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long zip:// URL. This only affects Corporate Server 4.0 (CVE-2007-1399). A CRLF injection vulnerability in the FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL filter could allow an attacker to inject arbitrary email headers via a special email address. This only affects Mandriva Linux 2007.1 (CVE-2007-1900). The mcrypt_create_iv() function calls php_rand_r() with an uninitialized seed variable, thus always generating the same initialization vector, which may allow an attacker to decrypt certain data more easily because of the guessable encryption keys (CVE-2007-2727). The soap extension calls php_rand_r() with an uninitialized seec variable, which has unknown impact and attack vectors; an issue similar to that affecting mcrypt_create_iv(). This only affects PHP5 (CVE-2007-2728). The substr_count() function allows attackers to obtain sensitive information via unspecified vectors. This only affects PHP5 (CVE-2007-2748). An infinite loop was found in the gd extension that could be used to cause a denial of service if a script were forced to process certain PNG images from untrusted sources (CVE-2007-2756). An integer overflow flaw was found in the chunk_split() function that ould possibly execute arbitrary code as the apache user if a remote attacker was able to pass arbitrary data to the third argument of chunk_split() (CVE-2007-2872). A flaw in the PHP session cookie handling could allow an attacker to create a cross-site cookie insertion attack if a victim followed an untrusted carefully-crafted URL (CVE-2007-3799). Various integer overflow flaws were discovered in the PHP gd extension that could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code as the apache user (CVE-2007-3996). A flaw in the wordwrap() frunction could result in a denial of ervice if a remote attacker was able to pass arbitrary data to the function (CVE-2007-3998). A flaw in the money_format() function could result in an information leak or denial of service if a remote attacker was able to pass arbitrary data to this function; this situation would be unlikely however (CVE-2007-4658). A bug in the PHP session cookie handling could allow an attacker to stop a victim from viewing a vulnerable website if the victim first visited a malicious website under the control of the attacker who was able to use that page to set a cookie for the vulnerable website (CVE-2007-4670). Updated packages have been patched to prevent these issues. In addition, PECL ZIP version 1.8.10 is being provided for Corporate Server 4.0.
