Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.51900
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu 4.10 USN-99-1 (php4)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to php4
announced via advisory USN-99-1.

Stefano Di Paola discovered integer overflows in PHP's pack() and
unpack() functions. A malicious PHP script could exploit these to
break out of safe mode and execute arbitrary code with the privileges
of the PHP interpreter. (CVE-2004-1018)

Note: The second part of CVE-2004-1018 (buffer overflow in the
shmop_write() function) was already fixed in USN-66-1.

Stefan Esser discovered two safe mode bypasses which allowed malicious
PHP scripts to circumvent path restrictions. This was possible by
either using virtual_popen() with a current directory containing shell
metacharacters (CVE-2004-1063) or creating a specially crafted
directory whose length exceeded the capacity of the realpath()
function (CVE-2004-1064).

The following packages are affected:

libapache2-mod-php4
php4-cgi

Solution:
The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 4:4.3.8-3ubuntu7.5. In general, a standard system upgrade is
sufficient to effect the necessary changes.
