    * CVE-2020-7071: fix URL validation with functions like filter_var($url,
    FILTER_VALIDATE_URL)
    * CVE-2021-21705: fix URL validation functionality via filter_var() function
    with FILTER_VALIDATE_URL parameter when an URL with invalid password field can
    be accepted as valid
    CVE(s):
    CVE-2020-7071
    In PHP versions 7.3.x below 7.3.26, 7.4.x below 7.4.14 and 8.0.0, when validating URL with functions like
    filter_var($url, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL), PHP will accept an URL with invalid password as valid URL. This may
    lead to functions that rely on URL being valid to mis-parse the URL and produce wrong data as components
    of the URL.
    CVE-2021-21705
    In PHP versions 7.3.x below 7.3.29, 7.4.x below 7.4.21 and 8.0.x below 8.0.8, when using URL validation
    functionality via filter_var() function with FILTER_VALIDATE_URL parameter, an URL with invalid password
    field can be accepted as valid. This can lead to the code incorrectly parsing the URL and potentially
    leading to other security implications - like contacting a wrong server or making a wrong access decision.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
