+Package: php, apache
+Vulnerability: XSS; bypass safe mode
+OpenPKG Specific: no
+
+Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages:
+OpenPKG CURRENT <= php-4.3.1-20030516 >= php-4.3.2-20030529
+ <= apache-1.3.27-20030516 >= apache-1.3.27-20030529

+
+Dependent Packages: none

+Description:
+ Wojciech Purczynski found [2] out that it is possible to allow remote
+ attackers to bypass safe mode restrictions in PHP [1] 4.x to 4.2.2 and
+ modify command line arguments to the MTA (e.g. sendmail) in the 5th
+ argument to mail(), altering MTA behavior and possibly executing
+ commands. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project
+ assigned the id CAN-2002-0985 [4] to the problem.
+
+ Wojciech Purczynski also reported [2] that the mail function in PHP
+ [1] 4.x to 4.2.2 does not filter ASCII control characters from its
+ arguments, which could allow remote attackers to modify mail message
+ content, including mail headers, and possibly use PHP as a "spam
+ proxy." Depending on how The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
+ (CVE) project assigned the id CAN-2002-0986 [5] to the problem.
+
+ A security advisory [3] states that in PHP [1] version 4.3.1 (but we
+ at OpenPKG believe 4.2.x) and earlier, when transparent session ID
+ support is enabled using the "session.use_trans_sid" option, the
+ session ID is not escaped before use, which allows remote attackers to
+ insert arbitrary script via the PHPSESSID parameter, The Common
+ Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id
+ CAN-2003-0442 [6] to the problem.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm
+ -q php". If you have the "php" package installed and its version
+ is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade
+ it (see Solution).
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [9], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [10] or a mirror
+ location, verify its integrity [11], build a corresponding binary RPM
+ from it [7] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary
+ RPM [8]. For the current release OpenPKG 1.2, perform the following
+ operations to permanently fix the security problem (for other releases
+ adjust accordingly).
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/1.2/UPD
+ ftp> get php-4.2.2-1.1.2.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig php-4.2.2-1.1.2.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild php-4.2.2-1.1.2.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/php-4.2.2-1.1.2.*.rpm
+
+ Additionally, we recommend that you rebuild and reinstall
+ all dependent packages (see above), if any, too. [7][8]
