Detail

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog) Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)

The following packages are affected:

libapache-mod-php4 libapache2-mod-php4

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to version 4:4.3.8-3ubuntu7.13 (for Ubuntu 4.10), or 4:4.3.10-10ubuntu4.2 (for Ubuntu 5.04). In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

A bug has been found in the handling of the open_basedir directive handling. Contrary to the specification, the value of open_basedir was handled as a prefix instead of a proper directory name even if it was terminated by a slash ('/'). For example, this allowed PHP scripts to access the directory /home/user10 when open_basedir was configured to '/home/user1/'.
