-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 =========================================================================== AUSCERT External Security Bulletin Redistribution ESB-2012.0119 php5 security update 3 February 2012 =========================================================================== AusCERT Security Bulletin Summary --------------------------------- Product: php5 Publisher: Debian Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 5 Debian GNU/Linux 6 UNIX variants (UNIX, Linux, OSX) Windows Impact/Access: Execute Arbitrary Code/Commands -- Remote/Unauthenticated Denial of Service -- Remote/Unauthenticated Resolution: Patch/Upgrade CVE Names: CVE-2012-0830 Original Bulletin: http://www.debian.org/security/2012/dsa-2403 Comment: This advisory references vulnerabilities in products which run on platforms other than Debian. It is recommended that administrators running php5 check for an updated version of the software for their operating system. Stefan Esser discovered this vulnerability, and has advised that it is greatly mitigated by the use of Suhosin-Extension, even in the default configuration. - --------------------------BEGIN INCLUDED TEXT-------------------- - -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-2403-1 security@debian.org http://www.debian.org/security/ Thijs Kinkhorst February 02, 2012 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : php5 Vulnerability : code injection Problem type : remote Debian-specific: no CVE ID : CVE-2012-0830 Stefan Esser discovered that the implementation of the max_input_vars configuration variable in a recent PHP security update was flawed such that it allows remote attackers to crash PHP or potentially execute code. For the oldstable distribution (lenny), no fix is available at this time. For the stable distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 5.3.3-7+squeeze7. The testing distribution (wheezy) and unstable distribution (sid) will be fixed soon. We recommend that you upgrade your php5 packages.
