Detail
| Problem Description: Updated PHP packages that fix two security issues are now available. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Desktop version 3 - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 4 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop version 4 - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 4 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 4 - i386, ia64, x86_64 3. Problem description: PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language commonly used with the Apache HTTP Web server. A bug was discovered in the PEAR XML-RPC Server package included in PHP. If a PHP script is used which implements an XML-RPC Server using the PEAR XML-RPC package, then it is possible for a remote attacker to construct an XML-RPC request which can cause PHP to execute arbitrary PHP commands as the 'apache' user. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-1921 to this issue. When using the default SELinux "targeted" policy on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, the impact of this issue is reduced since the scripts executed by PHP are constrained within the httpd_sys_script_t security context. A race condition in temporary file handling was discovered in the shtool script installed by PHP. If a third-party PHP module which uses shtool was compiled as root, a local user may be able to modify arbitrary files. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-1751 to this issue. Users of PHP should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported fixes for these issues. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. 5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/): 158904 - Incorrect descriptions for php-ncurses and php-gd packages 159000 - CAN-2005-1751 shtool insecure temporary file creation 162044 - CAN-2005-1921 PHP PEAR XML_RPC arbitrary code execution |

| 17793 | XML-RPC for PHP (PHPXMLRPC) parseRequest() Function Arbitrary PHP Code Execution XML-RPC for PHP (PHPXMLRPC) contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary PHP code. The issue is due to the 'parseRequest()' function not properly sanitizing user-supplied input. By creating an XML file that uses single quotes to escape into the 'eval()' call, a remote attacker can execute arbitrary PHP code resulting in a loss of integrity. |
| 16848 | shtool Symlink Arbitrary File Manipulation shtool contains a flaw that may allow a malicious local user to overwrite or create arbitrary files on the system. The issue is due to the script creating temporary files insecurely. It is possible for a user to use a symlink style attack to manipulate arbitrary files, resulting in a loss of integrity. |
