Debian DLA-2188-1 : php5 security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 135980

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

Three issues have been found in php5, a server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language.

CVE-2020-7064 A one byte out-of-bounds read, which could potentially lead to information disclosure or crash.

CVE-2020-7066 An URL containing zero (\0) character will be truncated at it, which may cause some software to make incorrect assumptions and possibly send some information to a wrong server.

CVE-2020-7067 Using a malformed url-encoded string an Out-of-Bounds read can occur.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 5.6.40+dfsg-0+deb8u11.

We recommend that you upgrade your php5 packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
