Debian DSA-5425-1 : php8.2 - security update

high Nessus Plugin ID 177294

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

The remote Debian 12 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the dsa-5425 advisory.

It was discovered that PHP's implementation of SOAP HTTP Digest authentication performed insufficient error validation, which may result in a stack information leak or use of weak randomness. For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in version 8.2.7-1~deb12u1. We recommend that you upgrade your php8.2 packages. For the detailed security status of php8.2 please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/php8.2

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

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

Solution

Upgrade the php8.2 packages.

For the stable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed in version 8.2.7-1~deb12u1.
