Some vulnerabilities were discovered and corrected in php-5.2.11: The tempnam function in ext/standard/file.c in PHP 5.2.11 and earlier, and 5.3.x before 5.3.1, allows context-dependent attackers to bypass safe_mode restrictions, and create files in group-writable or world-writable directories, via the dir and prefix arguments (CVE-2009-3557). The posix_mkfifo function in ext/posix/posix.c in PHP 5.2.11 and earlier, and 5.3.x before 5.3.1, allows context-dependent attackers to bypass open_basedir restrictions, and create FIFO files, via the pathname and mode arguments, as demonstrated by creating a .htaccess file (CVE-2009-3558). PHP 5.2.11, and 5.3.x before 5.3.1, does not restrict the number of temporary files created when handling a multipart/form-data POST request, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion), and makes it easier for remote attackers to exploit local file inclusion vulnerabilities, via multiple requests, related to lack of support for the max_file_uploads directive (CVE-2009-4017). The proc_open function in ext/standard/proc_open.c in PHP before 5.2.11 and 5.3.x before 5.3.1 does not enforce the (1) safe_mode_allowed_env_vars and (2) safe_mode_protected_env_vars directives, which allows context-dependent attackers to execute programs with an arbitrary environment via the env parameter, as demonstrated by a crafted value of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable (CVE-2009-4018). Intermittent segfaults occured on x86_64 with the latest phpmyadmin and with apache (#53735). Additionally, some packages which require so, have been rebuilt and are being provided as updates. Affected: 2009.1
