CESA-2005:0831-001 Important CentOS 4 x86_64 php - security update (CENTOSPLUS only) (Johnny Hughes) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2005 16:06:57 -0500 From: Johnny Hughes <johnny at centos.org> Subject: [CentOS-announce] CESA-2005:0831-001 Important CentOS 4 i386 php - security update (CENTOSPLUS only) To: CentOS-Announce <centos-announce at centos.org> Message-ID: <1125522417.10751.37.camel at myth.home.local> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" CentOS Errata and Security Advisory 2005:0831-001 Important CentOS 4 i386 php - security update This CESA is for the version of php is that is included in the centosplus repo for CentOS-4 ... this is not an update to the main CentOS-4 repo. ---------------- Name : php Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 5.0.4 Vendor: CentOS Release : 3.centos4 Build Date: 31 Aug 2005 12:15:26 AM UTC Install Date: (not installed) Build Host: C4i386-build Group : Development/Languages Source RPM: php-5.0.4-3.centos4.src.rpm License: The PHP License Packager : Johnny Hughes <johnny at centos.org> URL : http://www.php.net/ Summary : The PHP HTML-embedded scripting language. (PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) Description : PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it easy for developers to write dynamically generated webpages. PHP also offers built-in database integration for several commercial and non-commercial database management systems, so writing a database-enabled webpage with PHP is fairly simple. The most common use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts. The mod_php module enables the Apache Web server to understand and process the embedded PHP language in Web pages. ---------------- Update Information: This update is considered important by the CentOS Development Team. A bug was discovered in the PEAR XML-RPC Server package included in PHP. If a PHP script is used which implements an XML-RPC Server using the PEAR XML-RPC package, then it is possible for a remote attacker to construct an XML-RPC request which can cause PHP to execute arbitrary PHP commands as the 'apache' user. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-2498 to this issue. All Users of PHP-5 from the CentOSPlus Repo should upgrade to these updated packages.
