Amazon Linux AMI : php56 / php70,php71,php72 (ALAS-2019-1147)

high Nessus Plugin ID 121132

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux AMI host is missing a security update.

Description

ext/imap/php_imap.c in PHP 5.x and 7.x before 7.3.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via an empty string in the message argument to the imap_mail function.(CVE-2018-19935)

University of Washington IMAP Toolkit 2007f on UNIX, as used in imap_open() in PHP and other products, launches an rsh command (by means of the imap_rimap function in c-client/imap4r1.c and the tcp_aopen function in osdep/unix/tcp_unix.c) without preventing argument injection, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary OS commands if the IMAP server name is untrusted input (e.g., entered by a user of a web application) and if rsh has been replaced by a program with different argument semantics. For example, if rsh is a link to ssh (as seen on Debian and Ubuntu systems), then the attack can use an IMAP server name containing a '-oProxyCommand' argument.(CVE-2018-19518)

Solution

Run 'yum update php56' to update your system.

Run 'yum update php70' to update your system.

Run 'yum update php71' to update your system.
