The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - The get_icu_disp_value_src_php function in ext/intl/locale/locale_methods.c in PHP before 5.3.29, 5.4.x     before 5.4.30, and 5.5.x before 5.5.14 does not properly restrict calls to the ICU uresbund.cpp component,     which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified     other impact via a locale_get_display_name call with a long first argument. (CVE-2014-9912)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

According to the versions of the php packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The get_icu_disp_value_src_php function in     ext/intl/locale/locale_methods.c in PHP before 5.3.29,     5.4.x before 5.4.30, and 5.5.x before 5.5.14 does not     properly restrict calls to the ICU uresbund.cpp     component, which allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (buffer overflow) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a locale_get_display_name     call with a long first argument.(CVE-2014-9912)

  - Use-after-free vulnerability in the spl_ptr_heap_insert     function in ext/spl/spl_heap.c in PHP before 5.5.27 and     5.6.x before 5.6.11 allows remote attackers to execute     arbitrary code by triggering a failed     SplMinHeap::compare operation.(CVE-2015-4116)

  - A flaw was found in the way the way PHP's Phar     extension parsed Phar archives. A specially crafted     archive could cause PHP to crash or, possibly, execute     arbitrary code when opened.(CVE-2015-7803)

  - A flaw was found in the way the way PHP's Phar     extension parsed Phar archives. A specially crafted     archive could cause PHP to crash or, possibly, execute     arbitrary code when opened.(CVE-2015-7804)

  - ext/libxml/libxml.c in PHP before 5.5.22 and 5.6.x     before 5.6.6, when PHP-FPM is used, does not isolate     each thread from libxml_disable_entity_loader changes     in other threads, which allows remote attackers to     conduct XML External Entity (XXE) and XML Entity     Expansion (XEE) attacks via a crafted XML document, a     related issue to CVE-2015-5161.(CVE-2015-8866)

  - Stack consumption vulnerability in GD in PHP before     5.6.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of     service via a crafted imagefilltoborder     call.(CVE-2015-8874)

  - It was found that the exif_convert_any_to_int()     function in PHP was vulnerable to floating point     exceptions when parsing tags in image files. A remote     attacker with the ability to upload a malicious image     could crash PHP, causing a Denial of     Service.(CVE-2016-10158)

  - Integer overflow in the phar_parse_pharfile function in     ext/phar/phar.c in PHP before 5.6.30 and 7.0.x before     7.0.15 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of     service (memory consumption or application crash) via a     truncated manifest entry in a PHAR     archive.(CVE-2016-10159)

  - The php_url_parse_ex function in ext/standard/url.c in     PHP before 5.5.38 allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (buffer over-read) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via vectors involving the     smart_str data type.(CVE-2016-6288)

  - The exif_process_IFD_in_MAKERNOTE function in     ext/exif/exif.c in PHP before 5.5.38, 5.6.x before     5.6.24, and 7.x before 7.0.9 allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array access     and memory corruption), obtain sensitive information     from process memory, or possibly have unspecified other     impact via a crafted JPEG image.(CVE-2016-6291)

  - The exif_process_user_comment function in     ext/exif/exif.c in PHP before 5.5.38, 5.6.x before     5.6.24, and 7.x before 7.0.9 allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and     application crash) via a crafted JPEG     image.(CVE-2016-6292)

  - The locale_accept_from_http function in     ext/intl/locale/locale_methods.c in PHP before 5.5.38,     5.6.x before 5.6.24, and 7.x before 7.0.9 does not     properly restrict calls to the ICU     uloc_acceptLanguageFromHTTP function, which allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other     impact via a call with a long argument.(CVE-2016-6294)

  - ext/session/session.c in PHP before 5.6.25 and 7.x     before 7.0.10 skips invalid session names in a way that     triggers incorrect parsing, which allows remote     attackers to inject arbitrary-type session data by     leveraging control of a session name, as demonstrated     by object injection.(CVE-2016-7125)

  - The exif_process_IFD_in_TIFF function in     ext/exif/exif.c in PHP before 5.6.25 and 7.x before     7.0.10 mishandles the case of a thumbnail offset that     exceeds the file size, which allows remote attackers to     obtain sensitive information from process memory via a     crafted TIFF image.(CVE-2016-7128)

  - The php_wddx_push_element function in ext/wddx/wddx.c     in PHP before 5.6.26 and 7.x before 7.0.11 allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid     pointer access and out-of-bounds read) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via an incorrect boolean     element in a wddxPacket XML document, leading to     mishandling in a wddx_deserialize call.(CVE-2016-7418)

  - In PHP before 5.6.31, 7.x before 7.0.21, and 7.1.x     before 7.1.7, a stack-based buffer overflow in the     zend_ini_do_op() function in Zend/zend_ini_parser.c     could cause a denial of service or potentially allow     executing code. NOTE: this is only relevant for PHP     applications that accept untrusted input (instead of     the system's php.ini file) for the parse_ini_string or     parse_ini_file function, e.g., a web application for     syntax validation of php.ini     directives.(CVE-2017-11628)

  - An issue was discovered in PHP before 5.6.35, 7.0.x     before 7.0.29, 7.1.x before 7.1.16, and 7.2.x before     7.2.4. Dumpable FPM child processes allow bypassing     opcache access controls because fpm_unix.c makes a     PR_SET_DUMPABLE prctl call, allowing one user (in a     multiuser environment) to obtain sensitive information     from the process memory of a second user's PHP     applications by running gcore on the PID of the PHP-FPM     worker process.(CVE-2018-10545)

  - An issue was discovered in ext/phar/phar_object.c in     PHP before 5.6.36, 7.0.x before 7.0.30, 7.1.x before     7.1.17, and 7.2.x before 7.2.5. There is Reflected XSS     on the PHAR 403 and 404 error pages via request data of     a request for a .phar file.(CVE-2018-10547)

  - exif_process_IFD_in_MAKERNOTE in ext/exif/exif.c in PHP     before 5.6.37, 7.0.x before 7.0.31, 7.1.x before     7.1.20, and 7.2.x before 7.2.8 allows remote attackers     to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and     application crash) via a crafted JPEG     file.(CVE-2018-14851)

  - A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Apache2     component of PHP was found. When using     'Transfer-Encoding: chunked', the request allows remote     attackers to potentially run a malicious script in a     victim's browser. This vulnerability can be exploited     only by producing malformed requests and it's believed     it's unlikely to be used in practical cross-site     scripting attack.(CVE-2018-17082)

  - gd_gif_in.c in the GD Graphics Library (aka libgd), as     used in PHP before 5.6.33, 7.0.x before 7.0.27, 7.1.x     before 7.1.13, and 7.2.x before 7.2.1, has an integer     signedness error that leads to an infinite loop via a     crafted GIF file, as demonstrated by a call to the     imagecreatefromgif or imagecreatefromstring PHP     function. This is related to GetCode_ and     gdImageCreateFromGifCtx.(CVE-2018-5711)

  - An issue was discovered in PHP before 5.6.33, 7.0.x     before 7.0.27, 7.1.x before 7.1.13, and 7.2.x before     7.2.1. There is Reflected XSS on the PHAR 404 error     page via the URI of a request for a .phar     file.(CVE-2018-5712)
