Description

According to its banner, the version of PHP installed on the remote host is older than 5.3.2 / 5.2.13. Such versions may be affected by several security issues :

- It may be possible to bypass the 'open_basedir'/ 'safe_mode' configuration restrictions due to an error in session extensions.
