This host is installed with PHP and is prone to remote code execution vulnerability.

Successful exploitation could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of a webserver. Failed attempts will likely result in denial of service conditions. Impact Level: System/Application

No solution or patch was made available for at least one year since disclosure of this vulnerability. Likely none will be provided anymore. General solution options are to upgrade to a newer release, disable respective features, remove the product or replace the product by another one.

The flaw is due to an error in the 'com_print_typeinfo()' function, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted arguments that trigger incorrect handling of COM object VARIANT types.

PHP Version 5.4.3 and prior on Windows
