CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT

PACKAGE : php4
SUMMARY : Integer overflow vulnerabilities and several other minor issues
DATE : 2003-09-24 16:15:00
ID : CLA-2003:749
RELEVANT
RELEASES : 7.0, 8, 9
DESCRIPTION
PHP[1] is a very popular scripting language used by web servers to
offer dynamic content.
This announcement updates PHP to the 4.3.3[2] version. This new
version includes several fixes[3] and improvements, including fixes
for potential integer overflow vulnerabilities. The exploitation of
these vulnerabilities depend on the php application and the scenario
where it is executed.
It is important to note that the last php update announcement[4] for
Conectiva Linux contains important information about the changes in
the packages originally shipped in the 7.0 and 8 versions of the
distribution.
SOLUTION
It is recommended that all PHP users upgrade their packages.
IMPORTANT: if PHP is being used as an Apache module, the web server
has to be restarted after the upgrade if it was already running. To
do so, please run, as root:
# service httpd stop
(wait a few seconds and check with "ps ax|grep httpd" if there are
any httpd processes running. On a busy webserver this could take a
little longer.)
ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS
The apt tool can be used to perform RPM packages upgrades:
- run: apt-get update
- after that, execute: apt-get upgrade
Detailed instructions reagarding the use of apt and upgrade examples
can be found at http://distro.conectiva.com.br/atualizacoes/#apt?idioma=en
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
All packages are signed with Conectiva's GPG key. The key and instructions
on how to import it can be found at
http://distro.conectiva.com.br/seguranca/chave/?idioma=en
Instructions on how to check the signatures of the RPM packages can be
found at http://distro.conectiva.com.br/seguranca/politica/?idioma=en
