Description Tomas Hoger 2008-12-18 14:49:53 UTC

Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2008-5625 to the following vulnerability:

PHP 5 before 5.2.7 does not enforce the error_log safe_mode
restrictions when safe_mode is enabled through a php_admin_flag
setting in httpd.conf, which allows context-dependent attackers to
write to arbitrary files by placing a "php_value error_log" entry in a
.htaccess file.
