Package: php4 Version: 4:4.3.10-16 Severity: normal Tags: security Ref: http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2005-3389
Description: A problem when a request was terminated due to memory_limit constraints during certain parse_str() calls. The parse_str function in PHP 4.x up to 4.4.0 and 5.x up to 5.0.5, when called with only one parameter, allows remote attackers to enable the register_globals directive via inputs that cause a request to be terminated due to the memory_limit setting, which causes PHP to set an internal flag that enables register_globals and allows attackers to exploit vulnerabilities in PHP applications that would otherwise be protected. Vulnerable PHP versions: PHP4 up to 4.4.0 (according to CVE)
