Date Reported:

php7.0

Vulnerable:

Yes

Security database references:

In Mitre's CVE dictionary: CVE-2018-14851, CVE-2018-14883, CVE-2018-17082, CVE-2018-19518, CVE-2018-19935.

More information:

Multiple security issues were found in PHP, a widely-used open source general purpose scripting language: The EXIF module was susceptible to denial of service/information disclosure when parsing malformed images, the Apache module allowed cross-site-scripting via the body of a "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" request and the IMAP extension performed insufficient input validation which can result in the execution of arbitrary shell commands in the imap_open() function and denial of service in the imap_mail() function.

For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in version 7.0.33-0+deb9u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your php7.0 packages.
