Authorization Bypass

Description

PHP is vulnerable to authorization bypass. File names with NULL characters `\0` are not properly handled, which would allow a remote attacker to abuse the vulnerability to create a PHP script to access arbitrary files and bypass file system access restrictions. This is demonstrated by entering a NULL character such as `.php\0.jpg` at the end of the argument to the `file_exists` function, which causes access controls to treat the file as an image `.jpg` file, but process the file as a `.php` file.
