The remote host is missing an update for the 'php' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. It is discovered that the PHP XSL extension did not restrict the file writing capability of libxslt resulting in creating or overwriting arbitrary files. A flaw was found in the way PHP validated file names in file upload requests allowing a possible bypass of the sanitization of the uploaded file names. The fix for CVE-2012-1823 did not properly filter all php-cgi command line arguments causing the PHP interpreter to output usage information that triggers an Internal Server Error. A memory leak flaw was found in the PHP strtotime() function call resulting in excessive memory consumption by triggering many strtotime() function calls. PHP also did not check the zend_strndup() function's return value in certain cases allowing a remote attacker to crash a PHP application

  It was discovered that the PHP XSL extension did not restrict the file
  writing capability of libxslt. A remote attacker could use this flaw to
  create or overwrite an arbitrary file that is writable by the user running
  PHP, if a PHP script processed untrusted eXtensible Style Sheet Language
  Transformations (XSLT) content. (CVE-2012-0057)

  Note: This update disables file writing by default. A new PHP configuration
  directive, 'xsl.security_prefs', can be used to enable file writing in
  XSLT.

  A flaw was found in the way PHP validated file names in file upload
  requests. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to bypass the
  sanitization of the uploaded file names, and cause a PHP script to store
  the uploaded file in an unexpected directory, by using a directory
  traversal attack. (CVE-2012-1172)

  It was discovered that the fix for CVE-2012-1823, released via
  RHSA-2012:0546, did not properly filter all php-cgi command line arguments.
  A specially-crafted request to a PHP script could cause the PHP interpreter
  to output usage information that triggers an Internal Server Error.
  (CVE-2012-2336)

  A memory leak flaw was found in the PHP strtotime() function call. A remote
  attacker could possibly use this flaw to cause excessive memory consumption
  by triggering many strtotime() function calls. (CVE-2012-0789)

  It was found that PHP did not check the zend_strndup() function's return
  value in certain cases. A remote attacker could possibly use this flaw to
  crash a PHP application. (CVE-2011-4153)

  All php users should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain
  backported patches to resolve these issues. After installing the updated
  packages, the httpd daemon must be restarted for the update to take effect.");
