Description Jan Lieskovsky 2010-06-01 09:12:53 EDT
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures assigned an identifier CVE-2010-2093 to
the following vulnerability:

Use-after-free vulnerability in the request shutdown functionality in
PHP 5.2 before 5.2.13 and 5.3 before 5.3.2 allows context-dependent
attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a stream context
structure that is freed before destruction occurs.

       $arr[$i] = "";
     }
     stream_context_get_options($blah);
