Synopsis
An application installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.Description
According to its banner, the version of PHP running on the remote web server is 7.3.0 [alpha|beta] prior to 7.3.0. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:- An arbitrary command injection vulnerability exists in the imap_open function due to improper filters for mailbox names prior to passing them to rsh or ssh commands. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this by sending a specially crafted IMAP server name to cause the execution of arbitrary commands on the target system. (CVE-2018-19518)
- A denial of service vulnerability exists in the imap_mail function due to improper data validation. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this via an empty string in the message argument to the imap_mail function to cause the application to stop responding.
(CVE-2018-19935)
- A heap buffer over-read exists in the phar_parse_pharfile function.
An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to read allocated or unallocated memory past the actual data when trying to parse a .phar file. (CVE-2018-20783)
Solution
