Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'php' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2021-0501 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Updated php packages fix security vulnerability: In PHP versions 8.0.x below 8.0.12, when running PHP FPM SAPI with main FPM daemon process running as root and child worker processes running as lower-privileged users, it is possible for the child processes to access memory shared with the main process and write to it, modifying it in a way that would cause the root process to conduct invalid memory reads and writes, which can be used to escalate privileges from local unprivileged user to the root user (CVE-2021-21703). The php packages have been updated to 8.0.12 that fixes this issue and other bugs. Affected Software/OS: 'php' package(s) on Mageia 8. Solution: Please install the updated package(s).
