critical Nessus Plugin ID 103317

New! Plugin Severity Now Using CVSS v3

The calculated severity for Plugins has been updated to use CVSS v3 by default. Plugins that do not have a CVSS v3 score will fall back to CVSS v2 for calculating severity. Severity display preferences can be toggled in the settings dropdown.

Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

This update for php53 fixes the several issues. These security issues were fixed :

- CVE-2017-12933: The finish_nested_data function in ext/standard/var_unserializer.re was prone to a buffer over-read while unserializing untrusted data.
Exploitation of this issue could have had an unspecified impact on the integrity of PHP (bsc#1054430).

- CVE-2017-11628: Stack-based buffer overflow in the zend_ini_do_op() function in Zend/zend_ini_parser.c could have caused a denial of service or potentially allowed executing code (bsc#1050726).

- CVE-2017-7890: The GIF decoding function gdImageCreateFromGifCtx in the GD Graphics Library did not zero colorMap arrays use. A specially crafted GIF image could use the uninitialized tables to read ~700 bytes from the top of the stack, potentially disclosing sensitive information (bsc#1050241).

- CVE-2016-5766: Integer overflow in the _gd2GetHeader in the GD Graphics Library (aka libgd) allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted chunk dimensions in an image (bsc#986386).

- CVE-2017-11145: An error in the date extension's timelib_meridian parsing code could have been used by attackers able to supply date strings to leak information from the interpreter, related to ext/date/lib/parse_date.c out-of-bounds reads affecting the php_parse_date function (bsc#1048112).

- CVE-2017-11146: Lack of bounds checks in timelib_meridian parse code could have lead to information leak [bsc#1048111]

- CVE-2016-10397: Incorrect handling of various URI components in the URL parser could have been used by attackers to bypass hostname-specific URL checks (bsc#1047454).

- CVE-2017-11147: The PHAR archive handler could have been used by attackers supplying malicious archive files to crash the PHP interpreter or potentially disclose information due to a buffer over-read in the phar_parse_pharfile function (bsc#1048094).

- CVE-2017-11144: The openssl extension PEM sealing code did not check the return value of the OpenSSL sealing function, which could have lead to a crash of the PHP interpreter (bsc#1048096).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the SUSE security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
