This problem is already addressed and crackers can only crash web
server. (It's not good, though)

We are in release process for 4.2.0, we may not release 4.1.3 for this.

Dear gentlemen,

On the February 28 a notice appeared regarding the problem concerning
files upload in the php. The description of the problem can be found at
http://security.e-matters.de/advisories/012002.html

 "Release Date:           2002/02/27
              Author:        Stefan Esser [[EMAIL PROTECTED]]
              Application:  PHP v3.0.10-v3.0.18, v4.0.1-v4.1.1
              Severity:      Several vulnerabilities in PHP's
fileupload code allow remote compromise
              Risk:            Critical
              Reference:
http://security.e-matters.de/advisories/012002.html
              Last Modified:  1002/02/28 "

We applied the patch, that was made by the php developers and is
available at http://www.php.net/downloads.php

(http://www.php.net/do_download.php?download_file=rfc1867.c.diff-4.1.x.gz)
We applied the given patch to the php 4.1.0 and supposed that we'll no
longer encounter the problem described above.

An exploit appeared recently, which after having been applied to the
patched php 4.1.0 on the FreeBSD (4.2, 4.4 versions), crashes the child
Apache (segmentation fault).
(exploit text - http://packetstormsecurity.nl/0203-exploits/phpxpl.c)
I.e. the php patch officially released on February 28 doesn't solve
this problem to the end.
We downloaded the php version 4.1.2. The situation repeated on this php
version either.

We have some questions in this regard:
- is the new php version release planned ( 4.1.3 for example) where
there will be no such vulnerability?
- are there any patches planned to release for the php versions
available, to workaround such vulnerability?

If such workarounds are planned - by what time should we expect it to
become available ?

Thank you, 
Dmitry Zinin
