Description Andrej Nemec 2016-05-23 11:25:42 EDT
A vulnerability was found in php. Zend/zend_exceptions.c in PHP before 5.4.44, 5.5.x before 5.5.28, and 5.6.x before 5.6.12 does not validate certain Exception objects, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) or trigger unintended method execution via crafted serialized data.

Comment 2 Tomas Hoger 2016-06-01 10:44:34 EDT
This issue is triggered by deserialization of untrusted input - which is something explicitly documented as insecure:
