Synopsis

The remote SUSE host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

This update for php53 fixes the following issues: The following security issue was fixed :

 - An out-of-bounds read in the do_core_note function in readelf.c in libmagic.a allowed remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a crafted ELF file (CVE-2018-10360, bsc#1096984)

 - CVE-2018-12882: exif_read_from_impl allowed attackers to trigger a use-after-free (in exif_read_from_file) because it closed a stream that it is not responsible for closing (bsc#1099098)
