Detail

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog) Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog) Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger)

The following packages are affected:

libapache2-mod-php4 libapache2-mod-php5

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to version 4:4.3.8-3ubuntu7.15 (libapache2-mod-php4 for Ubuntu 4.10), 4:4.3.10-10ubuntu4.4 (libapache2-mod-php4 for Ubuntu 5.04), or 5.0.5-2ubuntu1.2 (libapache2-mod-php5 for Ubuntu 5.10). After a standard system upgrade you need to restart Apache with

sudo apache2ctl restart

to effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

Stefan Esser discovered that the 'session' module did not sufficiently verify the validity of the user-supplied session ID. A remote attacker could exploit this to insert arbitrary HTTP headers into the response sent by the PHP application, which could lead to HTTP Response Splitting (forging of arbitrary responses on behalf the PHP application) and Cross Site Scripting (XSS) (execution of arbitrary web script code in the client's browser) attacks. (CVE-2006-0207)

PHP applications were also vulnerable to several Cross Site Scripting (XSS) flaws if the options 'display_errors' and 'html_errors' were enabled. Please note that enabling 'html_errors' is not recommended for production systems. (CVE-2006-0208)

Id Description
22480 PHP Unspecified Error Condition XSS

PHP contains a flaw that allows a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the user-supplied input upon submission to the PHP 'Error Message' scripts. This may allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between their browser and the server.
