Debian DLA-1878-1 : php5 security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 127820

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Two heap buffer overflows were found in the EXIF parsing code of PHP, a widely-used open source general purpose scripting language.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 5.6.40+dfsg-0+deb8u5.

We recommend that you upgrade your php5 packages.

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

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
