Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.891490
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-1490-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'php5' package(s) announced via the DLA-1490-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'php5' package(s) announced via the DLA-1490-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Two vulnerabilities have been discovered in php5, a server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language. One (CVE-2018-14851) results in a potential denial of service (out-of-bounds read and application crash) via a crafted JPEG file. The other (CVE-2018-14883) is an Integer Overflow that leads to a heap-based buffer over-read.

Additionally, a previously introduced patch for CVE-2017-7272 was found to negatively affect existing PHP applications (#890266). As a result of the negative effects and the fact that the security team has marked the CVE in question as 'ignore,' the patch has been dropped.

For Debian 8 Jessie, these problems have been fixed in version 5.6.37+dfsg-0+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your php5 packages.
