Insight
A number of vulnerabilities were discovered in PHP language.
Many buffer overflow flaws were discovered in the PHP session extension, the str_replace() function, and the imap_mail_compose() function. An attacker able to use a PHP application using any of these functions could trigger these flaws and possibly execute arbitrary code as the apache user (CVE-2007-0906).
A one-byte memory read will always occur prior to the beginning of a buffer, which could be triggered, for example, by any use of the header() function in a script (CVE-2007-0907).
The wddx extension, if used to import WDDX data from an untrusted source, may allow a random portion of heap memory to be exposed due to certain WDDX input packets (CVE-2007-0908).
The odbc_result_all() function, if used to display data from a database,
and if the contents of the database are under the control of an attacker, could lead to the execution of arbitrary code due to a format string vulnerability (CVE-2007-0909).
Several flaws in the PHP could allow attackers to clobber certain super-global variables via unspecified vectors (CVE-2007-0910).
The zend_hash_init() function can be forced into an infinite loop if unserializing untrusted data on a 64-bit platform, resulting in the consumption of CPU resources until the script timeout alarm aborts the execution of the script (CVE-2007-0988).
Updated package have been patched to correct this issue.
