Unspecified vulnerability in PHP before 4.4.1, when using the virtual function on Apache 2, allows remote attackers to bypass safe_mode and open_basedir directives.

Multiple vulnerabilities in PHP before 4.4.1 allow remote attackers to bypass safe_mode and open_basedir restrictions via unknown attack vectors in (1) ext/curl and (2) ext/gd.

The RFC1867 file upload feature in PHP 4.x up to 4.4.0 and 5.x up to 5.0.5, when register_globals is enabled, allows remote attackers to modify the GLOBALS array and bypass security protections of PHP applications via a multipart/form-data POST request with a "GLOBALS" fileupload field.

The parse_str function in PHP 4.x up to 4.4.0 and 5.x up to 5.0.5, when called with only one parameter, allows remote attackers to enable the register_globals directive via inputs that cause a request to be terminated due to the memory_limit setting, which causes PHP to set an internal flag that enables register_globals and allows attackers to exploit vulnerabilities in PHP applications that would otherwise be protected.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the phpinfo function in PHP 4.x up to 4.4.0 and 5.x up to 5.0.5 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted URL with a "stacked array assignment."

The exif_read_data function in the Exif module in PHP before 4.4.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a malformed JPEG image.

The apache2handler SAPI (sapi_apache2.c) in the Apache module (mod_php) for PHP 5.x before 5.1.0 final and 4.4 before 4.4.1 final allows attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via the session.save_path option in a .htaccess file or VirtualHost.

The safe mode checks in PHP 4.x to 4.3.9 and PHP 5.x to 5.0.2 truncate the file path before passing the data to the realpath function, which could allow attackers to bypass safe mode. NOTE: this issue was originally REJECTed by its CNA before publication, but that decision is in active dispute. This candidate may change significantly in the future as a result of further discussion.

PHP 4.x to 4.3.9, and PHP 5.x to 5.0.2, when running in safe mode on a multithreaded Unix webserver, allows local users to bypass safe_mode_exec_dir restrictions and execute commands outside of the intended safe_mode_exec_dir via shell metacharacters in the current directory name. NOTE: this issue was originally REJECTed by its CNA before publication, but that decision is in active dispute. This candidate may change significantly in the future as a result of further discussion.

Multiple integer handling errors in PHP before 4.3.10 allow attackers to bypass safe mode restrictions, cause a denial of service, or execute arbitrary code via (1) a negative offset value to the shmop_write function, (2) an "integer overflow/underflow" in the pack function, or (3) an "integer overflow/underflow" in the unpack function. NOTE: this issue was originally REJECTed by its CNA before publication, but that decision is in active dispute. This candidate may change significantly in the future as a result of further discussion.
