-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2012-9490 2012-06-15 11:59:43 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : php Product : Fedora 17 Version : 5.4.4 Release : 1.fc17 URL : http://www.php.net/ Summary : PHP scripting language for creating dynamic web sites Description : PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it easy for developers to write dynamically generated web pages. PHP also offers built-in database integration for several commercial and non-commercial database management systems, so writing a database-enabled webpage with PHP is fairly simple. The most common use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts. The php package contains the module which adds support for the PHP language to Apache HTTP Server. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: The PHP development team would like to announce the immediate availability of PHP 5.4.4. All users of PHP are encouraged to upgrade to PHP 5.4.4. The release fixes multiple security issues: A weakness in the DES implementation of crypt and a heap overflow issue in the phar extension. PHP 5.4.4 fixes over 30 bugs. Please note that the use of php://fd streams is now restricted to the CLI SAPI Changelog: http://www.php.net/ChangeLog-5.php#5.4.4 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Jun 14 2012 Remi Collet <[email protected]> 5.4.4-1 - update to 5.4.4 finale - use /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d instead of /etc/tmpfiles.d - use /run/php-fpm instead of /var/run/php-fpm * Wed May 9 2012 Remi Collet <[email protected]> 5.4.3-1 - update to 5.4.3 (CVE-2012-2311, CVE-2012-2329) * Thu May 3 2012 Remi Collet <[email protected]> 5.4.2-1 - update to 5.4.2 (CVE-2012-1823) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #816956 - CVE-2012-2143 BSD crypt(): DES encrypted password weakness https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=816956 [ 2 ] Bug #823594 - CVE-2012-2386 php: Integer overflow leading to heap-buffer overflow in the Phar extension https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=823594 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
