Synopsis:          Moderate: php security, bug fix and enhancement update
Issue Date:        2013-02-21
CVE Numbers:       CVE-2012-0831
                    CVE-2012-2688
                    CVE-2011-1398
--

It was found that PHP did not check for carriage returns in HTTP headers,
allowing intended HTTP response splitting protections to be bypassed. 
Depending
on the web browser the victim is using, a remote attacker could use this 
flaw
to perform HTTP response splitting attacks. (CVE-2011-1398)

An integer signedness issue, leading to a heap-based buffer underflow, was
found in the PHP scandir() function. If a remote attacker could upload an
excessively large number of files to a directory the scandir() function runs
on, it could cause the PHP interpreter to crash or, possibly, execute 
arbitrary
code. (CVE-2012-2688)

It was found that PHP did not correctly handle the magic_quotes_gpc
configuration directive. This could result in magic_quotes_gpc input 
escaping
not being applied in all cases, possibly making it easier for a remote 
attacker
to perform SQL injection attacks. (CVE-2012-0831)

After installing the updated packages, the httpd daemon must be 
restarted for
the update to take effect.
