+Description:
+ Kosmas Skiadopoulos discovered a serious security vulnerability [0] in
+ the CGI SAPI of PHP version 4.3.0. PHP [1] contains code for preventing
+ direct access to the CGI binary with configure option
+ '--enable-force-cgi-redirect' and php.ini option 'cgi.force_redirect'.
+ In PHP 4.3.0 there is a bug which renders these options useless. Please
+ note that this bug does NOT affect any of the other SAPI modules such as
+ the Apache or ISAPI modules.
+
+ Anyone with access to websites hosted on a web server which employs the
+ CGI module may exploit this vulnerability to gain access to any file
+ readable by the user under which the webserver runs. A remote attacker
+ could also trick PHP into executing arbitrary PHP code if attacker is
+ able to inject the code into files accessible by the CGI. This could be
+ for example the web server access-logs.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running '<prefix>/bin/rpm -qa |
+ grep php'. If you have either the 'php' or 'apache with mod_php'
+ packages installed and their version is affected (see above), we
+ recommend that you immediately upgrade (see Solution) [2][3].
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [4][5], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [6] or a mirror location,
+ verify its integrity [7], build a corresponding binary RPM from it [2]
+ and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary RPM [3].
+ For the release OpenPKG 1.2, perform the following operations to
+ permanently fix the security problem for apache with mod_php. For
+ other releases adjust this recipe accordingly.
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/1.2/UPD
+ ftp> get apache-1.3.27-1.2.1.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig apache-1.3.27-1.2.1.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild apache-1.3.27-1.2.1.src.rpm --define 'with_mod_php
yes'
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/apache-1.3.27-1.2.1.*.rpm
