critical Nessus Plugin ID 85723

Language:

Synopsis

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

Description

PHP was updated to fix two security issues.

The following vulnerabilities were fixed :

 - CVE-2015-5589: PHP could be crashed when processing an invalid file with the 'phar' extension with a segfault in Phar::convertToData, leading to Denial of Service (DOS) (bsc#938721)

 - CVE-2015-5590: PHP could be crashed or have unspecified other impact due to a buffer overlow in phar_fix_filepath (bsc#938719)

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