+ <background>
+ <p>
+ PHP is a widely-used general-purpose scripting language that is
+ especially suited for Web development and can be embedded into HTML.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ The sscanf() PHP function contains an array boundary error that can be
+ exploited to dereference a null pointer. This can possibly allow the
+ bypass of the safe mode protection by executing arbitrary code.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker might be able to exploit this vulnerability in PHP
+ applications making use of the sscanf() function, potentially resulting
+ in the execution of arbitrary code or the execution of scripted
+ contents in the context of the affected site.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All PHP 4.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-lang/php-4.4.3-r1"</code>
+ <p>
+ All PHP 5.x users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-lang/php-5.1.4-r6"</code>
