Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51349
Category:Conectiva Local Security Checks
Title:Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2004:847
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory CLA-2004:847.

PHP[1] is a very popular scripting language used by web servers to
offer dynamic content.

Stefan Esser noted[2] a vulnerability[3] in php code so that a remote
attacker could force php to hit memory_limit in unsafe places which
would lead to a possible execution of arbitrary code.

He also found[4] out that the strip_tags() function, often used as a
validator for user input, could allow tags containing the null char.

This announcement also fixes the misinstalation of the CLI interface
instead of the CGI one. Thanks to Willian Marcelo Piovezan for the
report[5].


Solution:
The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades
by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade'
