Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2008:125

http://www.mandriva.com/security/

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Package : php

Date : July 3, 2008

Affected: Corporate 4.0

_______________________________________________________________________

 

Problem Description:

 

A number of vulnerabilities have been found and corrected in PHP:

 

A vulnerability in the chunk_split() function in PHP prior to 5.2.4

has unknown impact and attack vectors, related to an incorrect size

calculation (CVE-2007-4660).

 

The htmlentities() and htmlspecialchars() functions in PHP prior to

5.2.5 accepted partial multibyte sequences, which has unknown impact

and attack vectors (CVE-2007-5898).

 

The output_add_rewrite_var() function in PHP prior to 5.2.5 rewrites

local forms in which the ACTION attribute references a non-local URL,

which could allow a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive

information by reading the requests for this URL (CVE-2007-5899).

 

The escapeshellcmd() API function in PHP prior to 5.2.6 has unknown

impact and context-dependent attack vectors related to incomplete

multibyte characters (CVE-2008-2051).

 

Weaknesses in the GENERATE_SEED macro in PHP prior to 4.4.8 and 5.2.5

were discovered that could produce a zero seed in rare circumstances on

32bit systems and generations a portion of zero bits during conversion

due to insufficient precision on 64bit systems (CVE-2008-2107,

CVE-2008-2108).

 

The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
