From: mberg at synacor dot com Operating system: Red Hat Linux 7.2 (ish) PHP version: 4.4.2 PHP Bug Type: Filesystem function related Bug description: Fix for #32936 affects valid http redirects
Description: ------------ The original report was a vulnerability in redirects to FTP servers, since they don't perform URL escaping, but the fix effects HTTP and HTTPS as well. This broke one valid redirection for us that we know about. My fix was to wrap the calls to CHECK_FOR_CNTRL_CHARS in a conditional: diff -u2 -r php-4.4.2.orig/ext/standard/http_fopen_wrapper.c php-4.4.2/ext/standard/http_fopen_wrapper.c --- php-4.4.2.orig/ext/standard/http_fopen_wrapper.c Sun Jan 1 08:46:57 2006 +++ php-4.4.2/ext/standard/http_fopen_wrapper.c Fri Apr 7 18:07:28 2006 @@ -503,7 +503,9 @@ } \ /* check for control characters in login, password & path */ - CHECK_FOR_CNTRL_CHARS(resource->user) - CHECK_FOR_CNTRL_CHARS(resource->pass) - CHECK_FOR_CNTRL_CHARS(resource->path) + if (strncasecmp(resource->scheme, "http", sizeof("http")) && strncasecmp(resource->scheme, "https", sizeof("https"))) { + CHECK_FOR_CNTRL_CHARS(resource->user) + CHECK_FOR_CNTRL_CHARS(resource->pass) + CHECK_FOR_CNTRL_CHARS(resource->path) + } stream = php_stream_url_wrap_http_ex(NULL, new_path, mode, options, opened_path, context, --redirect_max, 0 STREAMS_CC TSRMLS_CC); -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=37045&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=trysnapshot51 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=37045&r=mysqlcfg
