An issue was discovered in PHP 7.0.x before 7.0.27, 7.1.x before 7.1.13, and 7.2.x before 7.2.1. Inappropriately parsing an HTTP response leads to a segmentation fault because http_header_value in ext/standard/http_fopen_wrapper.c can be a NULL value that is mishandled in an atoi call.

According to its banner, the version of PHP running on the remote web server is 7.2.x prior to 7.2.1. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability exists in the     imagecreatefromgif and imagecreatefromstring functions     of the gd_gif_in.c script within GD Graphics Library     (libgd) due to an integer signedness error. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue,     via a crafted GIF file, to cause the applicaiton to stop     responding. (CVE-2018-5711)

  - A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists due to     improper validation of .phar file before returning it to     users. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this, by convincing a user to click a specially crafted     URL, to execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser     session. (CVE-2018-5712)

  - A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability exists in the     ext/standard/http_fopen_wrapper.c script due to     http_header_value possibly being a NULL value in an atoi     call. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this issue, via a specifically crafted HTTP response, to     cause the application to stop responding. (CVE-2018-14884)
