Language:
Synopsis
The remote web server uses a version of PHP that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.Description
According to its banner, the version of PHP 4.3.x installed on the remote host is prior to 4.3.7. It is, therefore, potentially affected by a bug that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the remote host if the option memory_limit is set. Another bug in the function strip_tags() may allow an attacker to bypass content restrictions when submitting data and may lead to cross-site scripting issues.Solution
Upgrade to PHP 4.3.8.See Also
