Test ID:	1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.841002
Category:	Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:	Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-1437-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'php5' package(s) announced via the USN-1437-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'php5' package(s) announced via the USN-1437-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: It was discovered that PHP, when used as a stand alone CGI processor for the Apache Web Server, did not properly parse and filter query strings. This could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code running with the privilege of the web server. Configurations using mod_php5 and FastCGI were not vulnerable. This update addresses the issue when the PHP CGI interpreter is configured using mod_cgi and mod_actions as described in /usr/share/doc/php5-cgi/README.Debian.gz, however, if an alternate configuration is used to enable PHP CGI processing, it should be reviewed to ensure that command line arguments cannot be passed to the PHP interpreter. Please see CVE-2012-2311 for more details and potential mitigation approaches. Affected Software/OS: 'php5' package(s) on Ubuntu 8.04, Ubuntu 10.04, Ubuntu 11.04, Ubuntu 11.10, Ubuntu 12.04. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 7.5 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
