Alpine: php: security update to 5.4.17-r1 (deprecated)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 401133

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- ext/xml/xml.c in PHP before 5.3.27 does not properly consider parsing depth, which allows remote attackers
to cause a denial of service (heap memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a
crafted document that is processed by the xml_parse_into_struct function. (CVE-2013-4113)

- The openssl_x509_parse function in openssl.c in the OpenSSL module in PHP before 5.4.18 and 5.5.x before
5.5.2 does not properly handle a '\0' character in a domain name in the Subject Alternative Name field of
an X.509 certificate, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof arbitrary SSL servers via a
crafted certificate issued by a legitimate Certification Authority, a related issue to CVE-2009-2408.
(CVE-2013-4248)
