Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50740
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2003:082 (php)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to php
announced via advisory MDKSA-2003:082.

A vulnerability was discovered in the transparent session ID support
in PHP4 prior to version 4.3.2. It did not properly escape user-
supplied input prior to inserting it in the generated web page. This
could be exploited by an attacker to execute embedded scripts within
the context of the generated HTML (CVE-2003-0442).

As well, two vulnerabilities had not been patched in the PHP packages
included with Mandrake Linux 8.2: The mail() function did not filter
ASCII control filters from its arguments, which could allow an attacker
to modify the mail message content (CVE-2002-0986). Another
vulnerability in the mail() function would allow a remote attacker to
bypass safe mode restrictions and modify the command line arguments
passed to the MTA in the fifth argument (CVE-2002-0985).

All users are encouraged to upgrade to these patched packages.

Affected versions: 8.2, 9.0, 9.1, Corporate Server 2.1,
Multi Network Firewall 8.2


Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
