"According to its banner, the version of PHP running on the remote web
server is 7.0.x prior to 7.0.20. It is, therefore, affected by the
following vulnerabilities :

  - A flaw exists in _zend_hash_add_or_update_i within file
    main/php_ini.c when handling a malformed php.ini file.
    An attacker can exploit this to cause a segmentation
    fault, resulting in a denial of service condition or
    possibly the execution of arbitrary code. (bug #74600)

  - An illegal instruction error exists in the function
    ZEND_FETCH_CLASS_CONSTANT_SPEC_CONST_CONST_HANDLER()
    when processing specially crafted input. An attacker can
    exploit this to cause a denial of service condition or
    possibly the execution of arbitrary code. (bug #74546)");
