"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.");
