Description

The file_check_mem function in funcs.c in file before 5.23, as used in the Fileinfo component in PHP before 5.5.34, 5.6.x before 5.6.20, and 7.x before 7.0.5, mishandles continuation-level jumps, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted magic file.

Affected products and versions

  • PHP — Up to and including 5.5.33
  • PHP versions 5.6.0alpha1, 5.6.0alpha2, 5.6.0alpha3, 5.6.0alpha4, 5.6.0alpha5, 5.6.0beta1, 5.6.0beta2, 5.6.0beta3, 5.6.0beta4, 5.6.1, 5.6.2, 5.6.3, 5.6.4, 5.6.5, 5.6.6, 5.6.7, 5.6.8, 5.6.9, 5.6.10, 5.6.11, 5.6.12, 5.6.13, 5.6.14, 5.6.15, 5.6.16, 5.6.17, 5.6.18, 5.6.19, 7.0.0, 7.0.1, 7.0.2, 7.0.3, 7.0.4
