Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in PHP, a server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language, which may lead to the execution of arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  • CVE-2005-3353 Tim Starling discovered that missing input sanitising in the EXIF module could lead to denial of service.

  • CVE-2006-3017 Stefan Esser discovered a security-critical programming error in the hashtable implementation of the internal Zend engine.

  • CVE-2006-4482 It was discovered that str_repeat() and wordwrap() functions perform insufficient checks for buffer boundaries on 64 bit systems, which might lead to the execution of arbitrary code.

  • CVE-2006-5465 Stefan Esser discovered a buffer overflow in the htmlspecialchars() and htmlentities(), which might lead to the execution of arbitrary code.
