Tracker summary

CVE-2012-2336 severity moderate: SUSE including 436 source package names (apache2-mod_php5-5.2.14-0.7.30.40.1, apache2-mod_php5-5.6.28-1.1, …), 481 product×package rows across 17 product lines (SUSE Linux Enterprise Module for Web and Scripting 12, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1-TERADATA, … (17 product lines)): Fixed 431, Known Not Affected 50.

Description:

sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c in PHP before 5.3.13 and 5.4.x before 5.4.3, when configured as a CGI script (aka php-cgi), does not properly handle query strings that lack an = (equals sign) character, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) by placing command-line options in the query string, related to lack of skipping a certain php_getopt for the 'T' case. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2012-1823.
