Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.120098
Category:Amazon Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Amazon Linux: Security Advisory (ALAS-2012-95)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'php' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2012-95 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'php' package(s) announced via the ALAS-2012-95 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Integer overflow in the phar_parse_tarfile function in tar.c in the phar extension in PHP before 5.3.14 and 5.4.x before 5.4.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted tar file that triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

The crypt_des (aka DES-based crypt) function in FreeBSD before 9.0-RELEASE-p2, as used in PHP, PostgreSQL, and other products, does not process the complete cleartext password if this password contains a 0x80 character, which makes it easier for context-dependent attackers to obtain access via an authentication attempt with an initial substring of the intended password, as demonstrated by a Unicode password.

Affected Software/OS:
'php' package(s) on Amazon Linux.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
7.5
