affected by a permission escalation vulnerability.");

"According to its banner, the version of PHP 5.5.x installed on the
remote host is a version prior to 5.5.12. It is, therefore,
potentially affected by a permission escalation vulnerability.

A flaw exists within the FastCGI Process Manager (FPM) when setting permissions for a Unix
socket. This could allow a remote attacker to gain elevated privileges
after gaining access to the socket.

Note that this plugin has not attempted to exploit this issue, but
instead relied only on PHP's self-reported version number.");
