    Package : php5
    Vulnerability : multiple issues
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id(s) : CVE-2009-2626 CVE-2009-2687 CVE-2009-3291 CVE-2009-3292
    Debian bugs : 535888 540605 527560

    Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the PHP 5
    hypertext preprocessor. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
    project identifies the following problems:

    The following issues have been fixed in both the stable (lenny)
    and the oldstable (etch) distributions:

    CVE-2009-2687 CVE-2009-3292

    The exif module did not properly handle malformed jpeg files,
    allowing an attacker to cause a segfault, resulting in a denial
    of service.


    CVE-2009-3291

    The php_openssl_apply_verification_policy() function did not
    properly perform certificate validation.


    No CVE id yet

    Bogdan Calin discovered that a remote attacker could cause a denial
    of service by uploading a large number of files in using multipart/
    form-data requests, causing the creation of a large number of
    temporary files.

    To address this issue, the max_file_uploads option introduced in PHP
    5.3.1 has been backported. This option limits the maximum number of
    files uploaded per request. The default value for this new option is
    50. See NEWS.Debian for more information.


    The following issue has been fixed in the stable (lenny) distribution:

    CVE-2009-2626

    A flaw in the ini_restore() function could lead to a memory
    disclosure, possibly leading to the disclosure of sensitive data.


    In the oldstable (etch) distribution, this update also fixes a regression introduced by the fix for CVE-2008-5658 in DSA-1789-1 (bug #527560).


    For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
    version 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny4.

    The oldstable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
    version 5.2.0+dfsg-8+etch16.

    For the testing distribution (squeeze) and the unstable distribution
    (sid), these problems will be fixed in version 5.2.11.dfsg.1-2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your php5 packages.
