Description Dhananjay Arunesh 2019-03-04 12:32:23 UTC

An issue was discovered in PHP before 5.6.40, 7.x before 7.1.26, 7.2.x before 7.2.14, and 7.3.x before 7.3.1. A heap-based buffer over-read in PHAR reading functions in the PHAR extension may allow an attacker to read allocated or unallocated memory past the actual data when trying to parse the file name, a different vulnerability than CVE-2018-20783. This is related to phar_detect_phar_fname_ext in ext/phar/phar.c.

Comment 1 Huzaifa S. Sidhpurwala 2019-05-13 04:51:15 UTC

Analysis: 

Essentially an OOB read in the PHAR code, which can be triggered by malicious PHAR files. Obviously the php script needs to allow users (attackers) to upload arbitrary PHAR files and they need to be processed via Phar() function. Impact is PHP crash due to OOB read.
