In PHP versions 8.1.* before 8.1.29, 8.2.* before 8.2.20, 8.3.* before 8.3.8, due to a code logic error, filtering functions such as filter_var when validating URLs (FILTER_VALIDATE_URL) for certain types of URLs the function will result in invalid user information (username + password part of URLs) being treated as valid user information. This may lead to the downstream code accepting invalid URLs as valid and parsing them incorrectly.

The remote Debian 11 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-3920 advisory.

    Package        : php7.4     Version        : 7.4.33-1+deb11u6     CVE ID         : CVE-2022-4900 CVE-2024-5458 CVE-2024-8925 CVE-2024-8927                      CVE-2024-9026     Debian Bug     : 1072885

    Multiple security issues were found in PHP, a widely-used open source     general purpose scripting language, which could result in execution of     arbitrary code, erroneous parsing of invalid URLs or multipart form     data, configuration setting bypass, or log pollution.

    CVE-2022-4900

        It was discovered that setting the environment variable         PHP_CLI_SERVER_WORKERS to a large value leads to a heap buffer         overflow.

    CVE-2024-5458

        Due to a code logic error, filtering functions such as filter_var         when validating URLs (FILTER_VALIDATE_URL) for certain types of URLs         the function results in invalid user information (username +         password part of URLs) being treated as valid user information.
        This may lead to the downstream code accepting invalid URLs as valid         and parsing them incorrectly.

        This causes the same problems as CVE-2020-7071, but with IPv6 host         parts.

    CVE-2024-8925

        Mihail Kirov discovered an erroneous parsing of multipart form data         contained in an HTTP POST request, which could lead to legitimate         data not being processed thereby violating data integrity.

    CVE-2024-8927

        It was discovered that the `cgi.force_redirect` configuration         setting is bypassable due to environment variable collision.

    CVE-2024-9026

        In PHP-FPM, when configured to catch workers output through         catch_workers_output = yes configuration, it may be possible to         pollute the final log with up to 4 characters from the         FPM_STDIO_CMD_FLUSH macro, or remove up to 4 characters from the         logs.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version     7.4.33-1+deb11u6.

    We recommend that you upgrade your php7.4 packages.

    The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass implemented security restrictions.

    The vulnerability exists due to the way PHP handles HTTP variable names. A remote attacker can set a     standard insecure cookie in the victim's browser which is treated as a `__Host-` or `__Secure-` cookie by     PHP applications.

    Note, the vulnerability exists due to incomplete fix for #VU67756 (CVE-2022-31629). (CVE-2024-2756)

    The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to bypass authentication process.

    The vulnerability exists due to an error in within the password_verify() function, which can erroneously     return true. A remote attacker can bypass implemented authentication based on the vulnerable function and     gain unauthorized access to the web application. (CVE-2024-3096)

    * Fixed bug [GH-14109](https://github.com/php/php-src/issues/14109) (Fix accidental persisting of internal     class constant in shm). (ilutov)

    **OpenSSL:**

    * The openssl_private_decrypt function in PHP, when using PKCS1 padding (OPENSSL_PKCS1_PADDING, which is     the default), is vulnerable to the Marvin Attack unless it is used with an OpenSSL version that includes     the changes from this pull request: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/13817     (rsa_pkcs1_implicit_rejection). These changes are part of OpenSSL 3.2 and have also been backported to     stable versions of various Linux distributions, as well as to the PHP builds provided for Windows since     the previous release. All distributors and builders should ensure that this version is used to prevent PHP     from being vulnerable. (**CVE-2024-2408**)

    **Standard:**

    * Fixed bug [GHSA-9fcc-425m-g385](https://github.com/php/php-src/security/advisories/GHSA-9fcc-425m-g385)     (Bypass of CVE-2024-1874). (CVE-2024-5585) (nielsdos)

    **XML:**

    * Fixed bug [GH-14124](https://github.com/php/php-src/issues/14124) (Segmentation fault with XML extension     under certain memory limit). (nielsdos)

    **XMLReader:**

    * Fixed bug [GH-14183](https://github.com/php/php-src/issues/14183) (XMLReader::open() can't be     overridden). (nielsdos)


Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

According to its self-reported version number, the version of PHP installed on the remote host is 8.1.x prior to 8.1.29, 8.2.x prior to 8.2.20, or 8.3.x prior to 8.3.8. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

 - An argument Injection in PHP-CGI with a bypass of CVE-2012-1823. (CVE-2024-4577)

 - A filter bypass in filter_var FILTER_VALIDATE_URL. (CVE-2024-5458)

 - A bypass of CVE-2024-1874. (CVE-2024-5585)

Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of php81 installed on the remote host is prior to 8.1.29 / 8.3.8. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SSA:2024-158-01 advisory.

    New php packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to fix security issues.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the php81 security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The version of PHP installed on the remote host is prior to 8.1.29. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the Version 8.1.29 advisory.

  - sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c in PHP before 5.3.12 and 5.4.x before 5.4.2, when configured as a CGI script (aka php-     cgi), does not properly handle query strings that lack an = (equals sign) character, which allows remote     attackers to execute arbitrary code by placing command-line options in the query string, related to lack     of skipping a certain php_getopt for the 'd' case. (CVE-2012-1823)

  - In PHP versions 8.1.* before 8.1.28, 8.2.* before 8.2.18, 8.3.* before 8.3.5, when using proc_open()     command with array syntax, due to insufficient escaping, if the arguments of the executed command are     controlled by a malicious user, the user can supply arguments that would execute arbitrary commands in     Windows shell. (CVE-2024-1874)

  - In PHP versions 8.1.* before 8.1.29, 8.2.* before 8.2.20, 8.3.* before 8.3.8, when using Apache and PHP-     CGI on Windows, if the system is set up to use certain code pages, Windows may use Best-Fit behavior to     replace characters in command line given to Win32 API functions. PHP CGI module may misinterpret those     characters as PHP options, which may allow a malicious user to pass options to PHP binary being run, and     thus reveal the source code of scripts, run arbitrary PHP code on the server, etc. (CVE-2024-4577)

  - In PHP versions 8.1.* before 8.1.29, 8.2.* before 8.2.20, 8.3.* before 8.3.8, due to a code logic error,     filtering functions such as filter_var when validating URLs (FILTER_VALIDATE_URL) for certain types of     URLs the function will result in invalid user information (username + password part of URLs) being treated     as valid user information. This may lead to the downstream code accepting invalid URLs as valid and     parsing them incorrectly. (CVE-2024-5458)

  - In PHP versions 8.1.* before 8.1.29, 8.2.* before 8.2.20, 8.3.* before 8.3.8, the fix for CVE-2024-1874     does not work if the command name includes trailing spaces. Original issue: when using proc_open() command     with array syntax, due to insufficient escaping, if the arguments of the executed command are controlled     by a malicious user, the user can supply arguments that would execute arbitrary commands in Windows shell.
