FKIE_CVE-2007-3205

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2007-06-13 10:30 - Updated: 2026-06-16 22:41
Severity
Summary
The parse_str function in (1) PHP, (2) Hardened-PHP, and (3) Suhosin, when called without a second parameter, might allow remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary variables by specifying variable names and values in the string to be parsed. NOTE: it is not clear whether this is a design limitation of the function or a bug in PHP, although it is likely to be regarded as a bug in Hardened-PHP and Suhosin.
