Detail
Problem Description: Updated PHP packages that fix multiple security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1. This update has been rated as having moderate security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (Advanced Server) version 2.1 - i386, ia64 Red Hat Linux Advanced Workstation 2.1 - ia64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 2.1 - i386 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 2.1 - i386 3. Problem description: PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language commonly used with the Apache HTTP Web server. A response-splitting issue was discovered in the PHP session handling. If a remote attacker can force a carefully crafted session identifier to be used, a cross-site-scripting or response-splitting attack could be possible. (CVE-2006-3016) A buffer overflow was discovered found in the PHP sscanf() function. If a script used the sscanf() function with positional arguments in the format string, a remote attacker sending a carefully crafted request could execute arbitrary code as the 'apache' user. (CVE-2006-4020) An integer overflow was discovered in the PHP wordwrap() and str_repeat() functions. If a script running on a 64-bit server used either of these functions on untrusted user data, a remote attacker sending a carefully crafted request might be able to cause a heap overflow. (CVE-2006-4482) An integer overflow was discovered in the PHP memory allocation handling. On 64-bit platforms, the "memory_limit" setting was not enforced correctly, which could allow a denial of service attack by a remote user. (CVE-2006-4486) Users of PHP should upgrade to these updated packages which contain backported patches to correct these issues. These packages also contain a fix for a bug where certain input strings to the metaphone() function could cause memory corruption. 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/): 206934 - CVE-2006-4482 PHP heap overflow 206935 - metaphone() function causing Apache segfaults 206936 - CVE-2006-4486 PHP integer overflows in Zend 206937 - CVE-2006-4020 PHP buffer overread flaw 206964 - CVE-2006-3016 PHP session ID validation |

Title: | Unspecified vulnerability in session.c in PHP before 5.1.3 has unknown impact and attack vectors, related to "certain characters in session names," including special characters that are frequently associated with CRLF injection, SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and HTTP response splitting vulnerabilities. NOTE: while the nature of the vulnerability is unspecified, it is likely that this is related to a violation of an expectation by PHP applications that the session name is alphanumeric, as implied in the PHP manual for session_name(). | ||

27824 | PHP sscanf() Function Argument Swapping Overflow PHP contains a flaw that may allow a context-dependent attacker to elevate privileges. The issue is due to the sscanf function in scanf.c not properly sanitizing user-supplied input. Passing a crafted string to this function may trigger a buvver over-read allowing the execution of arbitrary code. |
