Two bugs in PHP may allow the disclosure of portions of memory and allow remote attackers to upload files to arbitrary locations. Bad array parsing in the rfc1867.c file could lead to the overwriting of the $_FILES array, which in turn could allow an attacker to write arbitrary files with the permission of the user running apache. Bad array parsing in php_variables.c could lead to show arbitrary memory content such as pieces of php code and other data. This affects all GET, POST or COOKIES variables.

In the case of the rfc1867.c patch, the start of it is over 400 lines beyond the 4.1.2 file EOF. The variables.c file shows no remote relation to the patched code. - Si ------- Additional Comments From marcdeslauriers 2004-10-09 05:07:08 ---- Confirmed, rh73 is not vulnerable. ------- Additional Comments From marcdeslauriers 2004-10-09 05:18:10 ---- rh9 doesn't look affected by this either. ------- Additional Comments From marcdeslauriers 2004-10-09 05:26:50 ---- ...and FC1 doesn't seem affected. I'm closing this bug as it seems our platforms are not affected. If anyone thinks otherwise, please re-open. ------- Additional Comments From bugzilla.fedora.us 2004-12-15 11:09:37 ---- just to help with later searching, the first vuln is CAN-2004-0958 and the second is CAN-2004-0959. marc: can you add this to the summary? ------- Additional Comments From bugzilla.fedora.us 2005-01-08 12:26:30 ---- these vulns apparently DID affect FC1. they have been fixed in bug 2344 ------- Additional Comments From bugzilla.fedora.us 2005-01-09 12:45:18 ---- *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 2344 *** ------- Bug moved to this database by dkl 2005-03-30 18:27 ------- This bug previously known as bug 2141 at https://bugzilla.fedora.us/ https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=2141 Originally filed under the Fedora Legacy product and Package request component.
