The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory FLSA-2005:2344.
An information disclosure bug was discovered in the parsing of GPC variables in PHP (query strings or cookies, and POST form data). If particular scripts used the values of the GPC variables, portions of the memory space of an httpd child process could be revealed to the client. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2004-0958 to this issue.
A file access bug was discovered in the parsing of multipart/form-data forms, used by PHP scripts which allow file uploads. In particular configurations, some scripts could allow a malicious client to upload files to an arbitrary directory where the apache user has write access. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2004-0959 to this issue.
Flaws were found in shmop_write, pack, and unpack PHP functions. These functions are not normally passed user supplied data, so would require a malicious PHP script to be exploited. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2004-1018 to this issue.
Flaws including possible information disclosure, double free, and negative reference index array underflow were found in the deserialization code of PHP. PHP applications may use the unserialize function on untrusted user data, which could allow a remote attacker to gain access to memory or potentially execute arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2004-1019 to this issue.
A flaw in the exif extension of PHP was found which lead to a stack overflow. An attacker could create a carefully crafted image file in such a way that if parsed by a PHP script using the exif extension it could cause a crash or potentially execute arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2004-1065 to this issue.
A flaw in the PHP cURL functions allows remote attackers to bypass the open_basedir setting and read arbitrary files via a file: URL argument to the curl_init function. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2004-1392 to this issue.
Users of PHP should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain fixes for these issues.
