4.3 MEDIUM — AV:L/AC:L/Au:S/C:P/I:P/A:P

Description

The readfile function in PHP 4.4.4, 5.1.6, and 5.2.1 allows context-dependent attackers to bypass safe_mode restrictions and read arbitrary files by referring to local files with a certain URL syntax instead of a pathname syntax, as demonstrated by a filename preceded a "php://../../" sequence.

Affected configurations

• php php 4.4.4 • php php 5.1.6 • php php 5.2.1
