Description

In PHP versions 8.2.* before 8.2.31, 8.3.* before 8.3.31, 8.4.* before 8.4.21, and 8.5.* before 8.5.6, the metaphone() function in ext/standard/metaphone.c uses a signed int variable to track the current position within the input string. If a string longer than 2,147,483,647 bytes is passed, a signed integer overflow occurs, resulting in undefined behavior. This can lead to an out-of-bounds read, causing a segmentation fault or access to unrelated memory, and may affect the availability of the PHP process.

Affected products and versions

  • PHP — From 8.2.0 (including) to 8.2.31 (excluding)
  • PHP — From 8.3.0 (including) to 8.3.31 (excluding)
  • PHP — From 8.4.0 (including) to 8.4.21 (excluding)
  • PHP — From 8.5.0 (including) to 8.5.6 (excluding)
