"According to its banner, the version of PHP 5.3 installed on the
remote host is older than 5.3.1. Such versions may be affected by
several security issues :
- Sanity checks are missing in exif processing.
- It is possible to bypass the 'safe_mode' configuration
setting using 'tempnam()'.
- It is possible to bypass the 'open_basedir'
configuration setting using 'posix_mkfifo()'.
- The 'safe_mode_include_dir' configuration setting may
be ignored. (Bug #50063)
- Calling 'popen()' with an invalid mode can cause a
crash under Windows. (Bug #44683)
- Provided file uploading is enabled (it is by default),
an attacker can upload files using a POST request with
'multipart/form-data' content even if the target script
doesn't actually support file uploads per se. By
supplying a large number (15,000+) of files, an attacker
could cause the web server to stop responding while it
processes the file list.
- 'proc_open()' can bypass 'safe_mode_protected_env_vars'.
(Bug #49026)
- An unspecified vulnerability affects the LCG entropy.");
