Description Sam Fowler 2018-07-30 05:36:59 UTC
PHP before versions 5.6.37, 7.0.31, 7.1.20 and 7.2.8 is vulnerable to a heap-based buffer overflow in the exif.c:exif_process_IFD_in_MAKERNOTE() function. An attacker could exploit this to cause a denial of service via crafted file.

This is an out-of-bounds read issue, that can possibly lead to crash or limited memory disclosure.
