RHSA-2026:47200
Vulnerability from csaf_redhat - Published: 2026-07-28 18:29 - Updated: 2026-08-08 23:06A flaw was found in PHP. When processing a specially crafted PHP Archive (phar) file containing circular symbolic links, the PHP process can enter an uncontrolled loop. This unbounded recursion exhausts the program's memory stack, causing the PHP application to crash. This vulnerability could allow an attacker to trigger a Denial of Service (DoS) condition, making the affected PHP service unavailable.

A flaw was found in PHP. Improper escaping of backslashes in attacker-provided parameters can lead to a SQL injection vulnerability. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw by crafting malicious input, potentially gaining unauthorized access to sensitive information, manipulating data, or causing a denial of service.

A flaw was found in PHP. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing specially crafted inputs to the `bccomp()` function. This could lead to an out-of-bounds write, resulting in stack and heap corruption. Such memory corruption can enable arbitrary code execution, allowing the attacker to take control of the affected system.
