Directory traversal vulnerability in the PharData class in PHP before 5.4.44, 5.5.x before 5.5.28, and 5.6.x before 5.6.12 allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in a ZIP archive entry that is mishandled during an extractTo call.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Directory traversal vulnerability in the PharData class in PHP before 5.4.44, 5.5.x before 5.5.28, and     5.6.x before 5.6.12 allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in a ZIP     archive entry that is mishandled during an extractTo call. (CVE-2015-6833)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

According to the versions of the php packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - ext/standard/var_unserializer.c in PHP before 5.6.25     and 7.x before 7.0.10 mishandles certain invalid     objects, which allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service or possibly have unspecified other     impact via crafted serialized data that leads to a (1)
    __destruct call or (2) magic method     call.(CVE-2016-7124)

  - Stack-based buffer overflow in ext/phar/tar.c in PHP     before 5.5.32, 5.6.x before 5.6.18, and 7.x before     7.0.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of     service (application crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted TAR     archive.(CVE-2016-2554)

  - A flaw was discovered in the way PHP performed object     unserialization. Specially crafted input processed by     the unserialize() function could cause a PHP     application to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary     code.(CVE-2015-6831)

  - The sapi_header_op function in main/SAPI.c in PHP     before 5.4.38, 5.5.x before 5.5.22, and 5.6.x before     5.6.6 supports deprecated line folding without     considering browser compatibility, which allows remote     attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks     against Internet Explorer by leveraging (1) %0A%20 or     (2) %0D%0A%20 mishandling in the header     function.(CVE-2015-8935)

(dot dot) in a ZIP archive     entry that is mishandled during an extractTo     call.(CVE-2015-6833)

  - Directory traversal vulnerability in the     ZipArchive::extractTo function in ext/zip/php_zip.c in     PHP before 5.4.45, 5.5.x before 5.5.29, and 5.6.x     before 5.6.13 and ext/zip/ext_zip.cpp in HHVM before     3.12.1 allows remote attackers to create arbitrary     empty directories via a crafted ZIP     archive.(CVE-2014-9767)

  - The ZIP signature-verification feature in PHP before     5.6.26 and 7.x before 7.0.11 does not ensure that the     uncompressed_filesize field is large enough, which     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds memory access) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a crafted PHAR archive,     related to ext/phar/util.c and     ext/phar/zip.c.(CVE-2016-7414)

  - ext/wddx/wddx.c in PHP before 5.6.28 and 7.x before     7.0.13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of     service (NULL pointer dereference) via crafted     serialized data in a wddxPacket XML document, as     demonstrated by a PDORow string.(CVE-2016-9934)

  - The php_wddx_push_element function in ext/wddx/wddx.c     in PHP before 5.6.29 and 7.x before 7.0.14 allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds read and memory corruption) or possibly     have unspecified other impact via an empty boolean     element in a wddxPacket XML document.(CVE-2016-9935)

  - In PHP before 5.6.31, an invalid free in the WDDX     deserialization of boolean parameters could be used by     attackers able to inject XML for deserialization to     crash the PHP interpreter, related to an invalid free     for an empty boolean element in     ext/wddx/wddx.c.(CVE-2017-11143)

  - Integer overflow in the php_html_entities function in     ext/standard/html.c in PHP before 5.5.36 and 5.6.x     before 5.6.22 allows remote attackers to cause a denial     of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by     triggering a large output string from the     htmlspecialchars function.(CVE-2016-5094)

  - The odbc_bindcols function in ext/odbc/php_odbc.c in     PHP before 5.6.12 mishandles driver behavior for     SQL_WVARCHAR columns, which allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (application crash) in     opportunistic circumstances by leveraging use of the     odbc_fetch_array function to access a certain type of     Microsoft SQL Server table.(CVE-2015-8879)

  - An issue was discovered in Oniguruma 6.2.0, as used in     Oniguruma-mod in Ruby through 2.4.1 and mbstring in PHP     through 7.1.5. A heap out-of-bounds write or read     occurs in next_state_val() during regular expression     compilation. Octal numbers larger than 0xff are not     handled correctly in fetch_token() and     fetch_token_in_cc(). A malformed regular expression     containing an octal number in the form of '\700' would     produce an invalid code point value larger than 0xff in     next_state_val(), resulting in an out-of-bounds write     memory corruption.(CVE-2017-9226)

  - In PHP before 5.6.31, 7.x before 7.0.21, and 7.1.x     before 7.1.7, the openssl extension PEM sealing code     did not check the return value of the OpenSSL sealing     function, which could lead to a crash of the PHP     interpreter, related to an interpretation conflict for     a negative number in ext/openssl/openssl.c, and an     OpenSSL documentation omission.(CVE-2017-11144)

  - The make_http_soap_request function in     ext/soap/php_http.c in PHP before 5.4.44, 5.5.x before     5.5.28, 5.6.x before 5.6.12, and 7.x before 7.0.4     allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information     from process memory or cause a denial of service (type     confusion and application crash) via crafted serialized
    _cookies data, related to the SoapClient::__call method     in ext/soap/soap.c.(CVE-2016-3185)

  - The object_common1 function in     ext/standard/var_unserializer.c in PHP before 5.6.30,     7.0.x before 7.0.15, and 7.1.x before 7.1.1 allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer     over-read and application crash) via crafted serialized     data that is mishandled in a finish_nested_data     call.(CVE-2016-10161)

According to its banner, the version of PHP running on the remote web server is 5.6.x prior to 5.6.12. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

 - A use-after-free error exists in file spl_dllist.c due to improper sanitization of input to the unserialize() function. An attacker can exploit this, by using a specially crafted SplDoublyLinkedList object, to deference freed memory and thus execute arbitrary code.

 - A use-after-free error exists in file spl_observer.c due to improper sanitization of input to the unserialize() function. An attacker can exploit this, by using a specially crafted SplObjectStorage object, to deference freed memory and thus execute arbitrary code.

 - A use-after-free error exists in file spl_array.c due to improper sanitization of input to the unserialize() function. An attacker can exploit this, by using a specially crafted SplArrayObject object, to deference freed memory and thus execute arbitrary code.

 - A flaw exists in file zend_exceptions.c due to the improper use of the function unserialize() during recursive method calls. A remote attacker can exploit this to crash an application using PHP.

 - A flaw exists in file zend_exceptions.c due to insufficient type checking by functions unserialize() and __toString(). A remote attacker can exploit this to cause a NULL pointer deference or unexpected method execution, thus causing an application using PHP to crash.

 - A path traversal flaw exists in file phar_object.c due to improper sanitization of user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this to write arbitrary files.

 - Multiple type confusion flaws exist in the _call() method in file php_http.c when handling calls for zend_hash_get_current_key or 'Z*'. An attacker can exploit this to disclose memory contents or crash an application using PHP.

 - A dangling pointer error exists in file spl_array.c due to improper sanitization of input to the unserialize() function. An attacker can exploit this, by using a specially crafted SplDoublyLinkedList object, to gain control over a deallocated pointer and thus execute arbitrary code.

 - A flaw exists in the file gd.c due to the improper handling of images with large negative coordinates by the imagefilltoborder() function. An attacker can exploit this to cause a stack overflow, thus crashing an application using PHP.

 - A flaw exists in the file php_odbc.c when the odbc_fetch_array() function handles columns that are defined as NVARCHAR(MAX). An attacker can exploit this to crash an application using PHP.

 - The openssl_random_pseudo_bytes() function in file openssl.c does not generate sufficiently random numbers. This allows an attacker to more easily predict the results, thus allowing further attacks to be carried out.

 - A user-after-free error exists in the unserialize() function in spl_observer.c due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.

 - A type confusion flaw exists in the serialize_function_call() function in soap.c due to improper validation of input passed via the header field. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code.

 - A use-after-free error exists in the unserialize() function in spl_dllist.c that is triggered during the deserialization of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.

 - A user-after-free error exists in the gmp_unserialize() function in gmp.c due to improper validation of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed memory, potentially resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.

 - An integer truncation flaw exists in the zend_hash_compare() function in zend_hash.c that is triggered when comparing arrays. A remote attacker can exploit this to cause arrays to be improperly matched during comparison.

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201606-10 (PHP: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in PHP. Please review the       CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    An attacker can possibly execute arbitrary code or create a Denial of       Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

- CVE-2015-6831 Use after free vulnerability was found in     unserialize() function. We can create ZVAL and free it     via Serializable::unserialize. However the unserialize()     will still allow to use R: or r: to set references to     that already freed memory. It is possible to     use-after-free attack and execute arbitrary code     remotely.

  - CVE-2015-6832 Dangling pointer in the unserialization of     ArrayObject items.

  - CVE-2015-6833 Files extracted from archive may be placed     outside of destination directory

  - CVE-2015-6834 Use after free vulnerability was found in     unserialize() function. We can create ZVAL and free it     via Serializable::unserialize. However the unserialize()     will still allow to use R: or r: to set references to     that already freed memory. It is possible to     use-after-free attack and execute arbitrary code     remotely.

  - CVE-2015-6836 A type confusion occurs within SOAP     serialize_function_call due to an insufficient     validation of the headers field. In the SoapClient's
    __call method, the verify_soap_headers_array check is     applied only to headers retrieved from     zend_parse_parameters; problem is that a few lines     later, soap_headers could be updated or even replaced     with values from the __default_headers object fields.

  - CVE-2015-6837 The XSLTProcessor class misses a few     checks on the input from the libxslt library. The     valuePop() function call is able to return NULL pointer     and php does not check that.

  - CVE-2015-6838 The XSLTProcessor class misses a few     checks on the input from the libxslt library. The     valuePop() function call is able to return NULL pointer     and php does not check that.

  - CVE-2015-7803 A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found     in the way PHP's Phar extension parsed Phar archives. A     specially crafted archive could cause PHP to crash.

  - CVE-2015-7804 An uninitialized pointer use flaw was     found in the phar_make_dirstream() function of PHP's     Phar extension. A specially crafted phar file in the ZIP     format with a directory entry with a file name '/ZIP'     could cause a PHP application function to crash.

According to its banner, the version of PHP running on the remote web server is 5.6.x prior to 5.6.12. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A use-after-free error exists in file spl_dllist.c due     to improper sanitization of input to the unserialize()     function. An attacker can exploit this, by using a     specially crafted SplDoublyLinkedList object, to     deference freed memory and thus execute arbitrary code.

  - A use-after-free error exists in file spl_observer.c due     to improper sanitization of input to the unserialize()     function. An attacker can exploit this, by using a     specially crafted SplObjectStorage object, to deference     freed memory and thus execute arbitrary code.

  - A use-after-free error exists in file spl_array.c due     to improper sanitization of input to the unserialize()     function. An attacker can exploit this, by using a     specially crafted SplArrayObject object, to deference     freed memory and thus execute arbitrary code.

  - A flaw exists in file zend_exceptions.c due to the     improper use of the function unserialize() during     recursive method calls. A remote attacker can exploit     this to crash an application using PHP.

  - A flaw exists in file zend_exceptions.c due to     insufficient type checking by functions unserialize()     and __toString(). A remote attacker can exploit this to     cause a NULL pointer deference or unexpected method     execution, thus causing an application using PHP to     crash.

  - A path traversal flaw exists in file phar_object.c due     to improper sanitization of user-supplied input. An     attacker can exploit this to write arbitrary files.

  - Multiple type confusion flaws exist in the _call()     method in file php_http.c when handling calls for     zend_hash_get_current_key or 'Z*'. An attacker can     exploit this to disclose memory contents or crash     an application using PHP.

  - A dangling pointer error exists in file spl_array.c due     to improper sanitization of input to the unserialize()     function. An attacker can exploit this, by using a     specially crafted SplDoublyLinkedList object, to gain     control over a deallocated pointer and thus execute     arbitrary code.

  - A flaw exists in the file gd.c due to the improper     handling of images with large negative coordinates by     the imagefilltoborder() function. An attacker can     exploit this to cause a stack overflow, thus crashing     an application using PHP.

  - A flaw exists in the file php_odbc.c when the     odbc_fetch_array() function handles columns that are     defined as NVARCHAR(MAX). An attacker can exploit this     to crash an application using PHP.

  - The openssl_random_pseudo_bytes() function in file     openssl.c does not generate sufficiently random numbers.
    This allows an attacker to more easily predict the     results, thus allowing further attacks to be carried     out.

  - A user-after-free error exists in the unserialize()     function in spl_observer.c due to improper validation     of user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit     this to dereference already freed memory, potentially     resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.

  - A type confusion flaw exists in the     serialize_function_call() function in soap.c due to     improper validation of input passed via the header     field. A remote attacker can exploit this to execute     arbitrary code.

  - A use-after-free error exists in the unserialize()     function in spl_dllist.c that is triggered during the     deserialization of user-supplied input. A remote     attacker can exploit this to dereference already freed     memory, potentially resulting in the execution of     arbitrary code.

  - A user-after-free error exists in the gmp_unserialize()     function in gmp.c due to improper validation of     user-supplied input. A remote attacker can exploit this     to dereference already freed memory, potentially     resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.

  - An integer truncation flaw exists in the     zend_hash_compare() function in zend_hash.c that is     triggered when comparing arrays. A remote attacker can     exploit this to cause arrays to be improperly matched     during comparison.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

According to its banner, the version of PHP running on the remote web server is 5.5.x prior to 5.5.28. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple use-after-free errors exist in spl_array.c,     spl_observer.c, and spl_dllist.c due to improper     sanitization of input to the unserialize() function. An     attacker can exploit these issues, by using a specially     crafted SplDoublyLinkedList, SplArrayObject, or     SplObjectStorage object, to deference freed memory and     thus execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-6831)

  - A dangling pointer error exists in file spl_array.c due     to improper sanitization of input to the unserialize()     function. An attacker can exploit this, by using a     specially crafted SplDoublyLinkedList object, to gain     control over a deallocated pointer and thus execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-6832)

  - A path traversal flaw exists in file phar_object.c due     to improper sanitization of user-supplied input. An     attacker can exploit this to write arbitrary files.
    (CVE-2015-6833)

  - Multiple type confusion flaws exist in the _call()     method in file php_http.c when handling calls for     zend_hash_get_current_key or 'Z*'. An attacker can     exploit this to disclose memory contents or crash     an application using PHP. (CVE-2015-8835)

  - The openssl_random_pseudo_bytes() function in file     openssl.c does not generate sufficiently random numbers.
    This allows an attacker to more easily predict the     results, thus allowing further attacks to be carried     out. (CVE-2015-8867)

  - A flaw exists in file zend_exceptions.c due to the     improper use of the function unserialize() during     recursive method calls. A remote attacker can exploit     this to crash an application using PHP. (CVE-2015-8873)

  - A flaw exists in file zend_exceptions.c due to     insufficient type checking by functions unserialize()     and __toString(). A remote attacker can exploit this to     cause a NULL pointer deference or unexpected method     execution, thus causing an application using PHP to     crash. (CVE-2015-8876)

  - An integer truncation flaw exists in the     zend_hash_compare() function in zend_hash.c that is     triggered when comparing arrays. A remote attacker can     exploit this to cause arrays to be improperly matched     during comparison.
    Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

According to its banner, the version of PHP running on the remote web server is 5.4.x prior to 5.4.44. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - Multiple use-after-free vulnerabilities exist in the SPL     component, due to improper handling of a specially     crafted serialized object. An unauthenticated, remote     attack can exploit this, via vectors involving     ArrayObject, splObjectStorage and SplDoublyLinkedList to     execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-6831)

  - A use-after-free vulnerability exists in     ext/spl/spl_array.c due to improper handling of a     specially crafted serialized data. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this via specially crafted     serialized data that triggers misuse of an array field     to execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2015-6832)

  - A directory traversal vulnerability exists in the     PharData class, due to improper implementation of the     exctractTo function. An unauthenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this via a crafted ZIP archive entry to     write to arbitrary files. (CVE-2015-6833)

  - The openssl_random_pseudo_bytes() function in file     openssl.c does not generate sufficiently random numbers.
    An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     defeat cryptographic protection mechanisms.
