"According to its banner, the version of PHP installed on the remote
host is 5.4.x earlier than 5.4.1, and, therefore, potentially affected
by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - The '$_FILES' variable can be corrupted because the
    names of uploaded files are not properly validated.
    (CVE-2012-1172)

  - The 'open_basedir' directive is not properly handled by
    the functions 'readline_write_history' and
    'readline_read_history'.

  - It's possible to bypass an HTTP response-splitting
    protection because the 'sapi_header_op()' function in 
    main/SAPI.c does not properly determine a pointer during
    checks for encoded carriage return characters. (Bug 
    #60227 / CVE-2012-4388)"
