Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.152118
Category:General
Title:PHP < 8.1.28, 8.2.x < 8.2.18, 8.3.x < 8.3.6 Security Update (GHSA-h746-cjrr-wfmr) - Linux
Summary:PHP is prone to a vulnerability in password_verify.
Description:Summary:
PHP is prone to a vulnerability in password_verify.

Vulnerability Insight:
If a password stored with password_hash starts with a null byte
(\x00), testing a blank string as the password via password_verify will incorrectly return true.

If a user were able to create a password with a leading null byte (unlikely, but syntactically
valid), an attacker could trivially compromise the victim's account by attempting to sign in with
a blank string.

Affected Software/OS:
PHP prior to version 8.1.28, version 8.2.x through 8.2.17 and
8.3.x through 8.3.5.

Solution:
Update to version 8.1.28, 8.2.18, 8.3.6 or later.

CVSS Score:
5.8
