Summary

php security update

Details

PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it easy for developers to write dynamically generated web pages. 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. %if 1 The php package contains the module (often referred to as mod_php) which adds support for the PHP language to Apache HTTP Server when running in prefork mode. This module is deprecated. %endif

Security Fix(es):

A memory information leak vulnerability exists in PHP's getimagesize function. Attackers may exploit this vulnerability to obtain sensitive memory information. The vulnerability affects multiple PHP versions including 8.1.x, 8.2.x, 8.3.x, 8.4.x, and 8.5.x series.(CVE-2025-14177)

A heap buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the array_merge() function of PHP. If we were using a memory safe language we would be limited to DoS attacks, but now we have heap corruption risks. This bug has been in PHP since PHP 7.1.(CVE-2025-14178)

A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability exists in PHP's PDO (PHP Data Objects) extension when handling quoting functionality. An attacker could potentially exploit this vulnerability to cause application crashes or denial of service.(CVE-2025-14180)

Severity

8.2 (High)

CVE-2025-14177 (GCVE-0-2025-14177)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-12-27 19:33 – Updated: 2025-12-29 16:01

Title

Information Leak of Memory in getimagesize

Summary

In PHP versions:8.1.* before 8.1.34, 8.2.* before 8.2.30, 8.3.* before 8.3.29, 8.4.* before 8.4.16, 8.5.* before 8.5.1, the getimagesize() function may leak uninitialized heap memory into the APPn segments (e.g., APP1) when reading images in multi-chunk mode (such as via php://filter). This occurs due to a bug in php_read_stream_all_chunks() that overwrites the buffer without advancing the pointer, leaving tail bytes uninitialized. This may lead to information disclosure of sensitive heap data and affect the confidentiality of the target server.

Severity

6.3 (Medium)

CVE-2025-14178 (GCVE-0-2025-14178)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-12-27 19:27 – Updated: 2026-01-24 11:04

Title

Heap buffer overflow in array_merge()

Summary

In PHP versions:8.1.* before 8.1.34, 8.2.* before 8.2.30, 8.3.* before 8.3.29, 8.4.* before 8.4.16, 8.5.* before 8.5.1, a heap buffer overflow occurs in array_merge() when the total element count of packed arrays exceeds 32-bit limits or HT_MAX_SIZE, due to an integer overflow in the precomputation of element counts using zend_hash_num_elements(). This may lead to memory corruption or crashes and affect the integrity and availability of the target server.

Severity

6.5 (Medium)

CVE-2025-14180 (GCVE-0-2025-14180)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-12-27 19:21 – Updated: 2025-12-29 16:00

Title

NULL Pointer Dereference in PDO quoting

Summary

In PHP versions 8.1.* before 8.1.34, 8.2.* before 8.2.30, 8.3.* before 8.3.29, 8.4.* before 8.4.16, 8.5.* before 8.5.1 when using the PDO PostgreSQL driver with PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES enabled, an invalid character sequence (such as \x99) in a prepared statement parameter may cause the quoting function PQescapeStringConn to return NULL, leading to a null pointer dereference in pdo_parse_params() function. This may lead to crashes (segmentation fault) and affect the availability of the target server.

Severity

8.2 (High)

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
