Description

This update of php5 fixes multiple security flaws : - A php5 upload filename injection was fixed. (CVE-2011-2202) - A integer overflow in the EXIF extension was fixed that could be used by attackers to crash the interpreter or potentially read memory. (CVE-2011-4566) - Multiple NULL pointer dereferences were fixed that could lead to crashes. (CVE-2011-3182) - An integer overflow in the PHP calendar extension was fixed that could have led to crashes. (CVE-2011-1466) - A symlink vulnerability in the PEAR installer could be exploited by local attackers to inject code. (CVE-2011-1072) - missing checks of return values could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference). (CVE-2011-4153) - denial of service via hash collisions. (CVE-2011-4885) - specially crafted XSLT stylesheets could allow remote attackers to create arbitrary files with arbitrary content. (CVE-2012-0057) - remote attackers can cause a denial of service via specially crafted input to an application that attempts to perform Tidy::diagnose operations. (CVE-2012-0781) - applications that use a PDO driver were prone to denial of service flaws which could be exploited remotely. (CVE-2012-0788) - memory leak in the timezone functionality could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption). (CVE-2012-0789) - a stack-based buffer overflow in the php5 Suhosin extension could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long string that is used in a Set-Cookie HTTP header. (CVE-2012-0807) - this fixes an incorrect fix for CVE-2011-4885 which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a request containing a large number of variables. (CVE-2012-0830) - temporary changes to the magic_quotes_gpc directive during the importing of environment variables is not properly performed which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct SQL injections.
