Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1012-01

Posted Aug 7, 2014

Authored by Red Hat | Site access.redhat.com

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1012-01 - PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language commonly used with the Apache HTTP Server. PHP's fileinfo module provides functions used to identify a particular file according to the type of data contained by the file. Multiple denial of service flaws were found in the way the File Information extension parsed certain Composite Document Format files. A remote attacker could use either of these flaws to crash a PHP application using fileinfo via a specially crafted CDF file. Two denial of service flaws were found in the way the File Information extension handled indirect and search rules. A remote attacker could use either of these flaws to cause a PHP application using fileinfo to crash or consume an excessive amount of CPU.
