Title:	Amazon Linux: Security Advisory (ALAS-2014-332)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'php55' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2014-332 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'php55' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2014-332 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: The BEGIN regular expression in the awk script detector in magic/Magdir/commands in file before 5.15 uses multiple wildcards with unlimited repetitions, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a crafted ASCII file that triggers a large amount of backtracking, as demonstrated via a file with many newline characters. Affected Software/OS: 'php55' package(s) on Amazon Linux. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 5.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
