Description Sam Fowler 2018-06-27 03:03:18 UTC 
PHP versions 7.2.x through 7.2.7 are vulnerable to a heap-use-after-free in streams.c:_php_stream_free() that is reachable via the exif.c:exif_read_from_impl() function. An attacker could exploit this via a crafted file to potentially execute arbitrary code.

The vulnerable PHP exif_read_data() function was modified in version 7.2.0 to support local files and stream resources.
