The remote host is missing an update for the 'php53'
package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Vulnerability Insight:
PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language commonly used with the Apache
HTTP Server.
A buffer overflow flaw was found in the Exif extension. A specially crafted
JPEG or TIFF file could cause a PHP application using the exif_thumbnail()
function to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges
of the user running that PHP application. (CVE-2014-3670)
An integer overflow flaw was found in the way custom objects were
unserialized. Specially crafted input processed by the unserialize()
function could cause a PHP application to crash. (CVE-2014-3669)
An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in the way the File Information
(fileinfo) extension parsed Executable and Linkable Format (ELF) files.
A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash a PHP application using
fileinfo via a specially crafted ELF file. (CVE-2014-3710)
An out of bounds read flaw was found in the way the xmlrpc extension parsed
dates in the ISO 8601 format. A specially crafted XML-RPC request or
response could possibly cause a PHP application to crash. (CVE-2014-3668)
The CVE-2014-3710 issue was discovered by Francisco Alonso of Red Hat
