Bug 125878 – dev-lang/php: ext/session HTTP Response Splitting and XSS through errors

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Security

[Description Andy Kraut 2006-03-11 14:49:29 UTC]

Multiple HTTP response splitting vulnerabilities in PHP 5.1.1 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers via a crafted Set-Cookie header, related to the (1) session extension (aka ext/session) and the (2) header function.  PHP 5.1.2 fixes this vulnerability.

[Comment 1 Luca Longinotti (RETIRED) 2006-03-11 17:27:10 UTC]

The same issue can be found in dev-lang/php-4.4.1-r3, PHP 4.4.2 fixes this (see http://www.php.net/release_4_4_2.php for details), the other "big issues" mentioned in the release announcement were already fixed by 4.4.1-r3, the security issues will be fixed by adding dev-lang/php-4.4.2 to the tree today/tomorrow (depends on your timezone :P), will update the bug once it's done.
Best regards, CHTEKK.

[Comment 2 Thierry Carrez (RETIRED) 2006-03-12 03:35:38 UTC]

Grouping bugs as the same release(s) also fix :

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in PHP 5.1.1, when
display_errors and html_errors are on, allow remote attackers to inject
arbitrary web script or HTML via inputs to PHP applications that are not
filtered when they are included in the resulting error message.
Note: Gentoo's default config file for PHP has display_errors=on and
html_errors=off making a default-configured system not vulnerable.

CVE-2006-0208
Affected versions are 5.x < 5.1.2 and 4.x < 4.2.2

dev-lang/php-4.4.2 and dev-lang/php-5.1.2 were just added to CVS, both are ready for arches to stable them, enjoy! ;)
Best regards, CHTEKK.

arches, please test and stable - thank you!

[Comment 6 Simon Stelling (RETIRED) 2006-03-12 09:02:20 UTC]

amd64 both stable

[Comment 7 Fernando J. Pereda (RETIRED) 2006-03-12 09:07:50 UTC]

Both alpha'lized.

[Comment 8 Jason Wever (RETIRED) 2006-03-12 10:20:39 UTC]

SPARC'd

[Comment 9 Tobias Scherbaum (RETIRED) 2006-03-12 12:47:45 UTC]

ppc stable

[Comment 10 Markus Rothe (RETIRED) 2006-03-12 13:38:20 UTC]

[Comment 11 René Nussbaumer (RETIRED) 2006-03-13 13:15:37 UTC]

Stable on hppa

[Comment 12 Joshua Jackson (RETIRED) 2006-03-13 22:06:30 UTC]

x86 done \(^.^)/

[Comment 13 Stefan Cornelius (RETIRED) 2006-03-14 06:20:18 UTC]

ready for glsa vote, i tend to say yes

[Comment 14 Thierry Carrez (RETIRED) 2006-03-14 13:27:55 UTC]

Yes here too.

[Comment 15 Thierry Carrez (RETIRED) 2006-03-14 13:28:40 UTC]

Ready for GLSA

[Comment 16 Matthias Geerdsen (RETIRED) 2006-03-22 14:22:43 UTC]

the GLSA will contain the following:

Unaffected packages:	dev-lang/php >= 5.1.2 on all architectures

Vulnerable packages:	
dev-lang/php < 4.4.2 on all architectures
dev-lang/php *>= 5.1.1 on all architectures
dev-lang/php *>= 5.0.5 on all architectures
dev-lang/php *>= 5.0.4 on all architectures

This is to ensure that future versions of php 4 will not be listed as affected. A side effect is, that new revisions of 5.1.1, 5.0.5, 5.0.4 will appear affected in case they will ever exist, which appears unlikely

[Comment 17 Sune Kloppenborg Jeppesen (RETIRED) 2006-03-22 15:10:54 UTC]

GLSA 200603-22

arm, ia64, s390 don't forget to mark stable to benifit from the GLSA.
