| From the Red Hat advisory:
Various integer overflow flaws were found in the PHP gd extension. A
script that could be forced to resize images from an untrusted source could
possibly allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code as the apache
user. (CVE-2007-3996)
A previous security update introduced a bug into PHP session cookie
handling. This could allow an attacker to stop a victim from viewing a
vulnerable web site if the victim has first visited a malicious web page
under the control of the attacker, and that page can set a cookie for the
vulnerable web site. (CVE-2007-4670)
A flaw was found in the PHP money_format function. If a remote attacker
was able to pass arbitrary data to the money_format function this could
possibly result in an information leak or denial of service. Note that is
is unusual for a PHP script to pass user-supplied data to the money_format
function. (CVE-2007-4658)
A flaw was found in the PHP wordwrap function. If a remote attacker was
able to pass arbitrary data to the wordwrap function this could possibly
result in a denial of service. (CVE-2007-3998)
A bug was found in PHP session cookie handling. This could allow an
attacker to create a cross-site cookie insertion attack if a victim follows
an untrusted carefully-crafted URL. (CVE-2007-3799)
A flaw was found in handling of dynamic changes to global variables. A
script which used certain functions which change global variables could
be forced to enable the register_globals configuration option, possibly
resulting in global variable injection. (CVE-2007-4659)
An integer overflow flaw was found in the PHP chunk_split function. If a
remote attacker was able to pass arbitrary data to the third argument of
chunk_split they could possibly execute arbitrary code as the apache user.
Note that it is unusual for a PHP script to use the chunk_split function
with a user-supplied third argument. (CVE-2007-4661) |
