According to its banner, the version of PHP installed on the remote host is 5.4.x earlier than 5.4.1, and, therefore, potentially affected by multiple vulnerabilities :
The ‘$_FILES’ variable can be corrupted because the names of uploaded files are not properly validated.
(CVE-2012-1172)
The ‘open_basedir’ directive is not properly handled by the functions ‘readline_write_history’ and ‘readline_read_history’.
It’s possible to bypass an HTTP response-splitting protection because the ‘sapi_header_op()’ function in main/SAPI.c does not properly determine a pointer during checks for encoded carriage return characters. (Bug #60227 / CVE-2012-4388)
