Tracker summary

CVE-2017-7189 severity low: SUSE including 111 source package names (apache2-mod_php5, apache2-mod_php53, …), 334 product×package rows across 24 product lines (SLES for SAP Applications 11 SP2, SLES for SAP Applications 11 SP3, … (24 product lines)): Known Not Affected 334.

Description:

main/streams/xp_socket.c in PHP 7.x before 2017-03-07 misparses fsockopen calls, such as by interpreting fsockopen('127.0.0.1:80', 443) as if the address/port were 127.0.0.1:80:443, which is later truncated to 127.0.0.1:80. This behavior has a security risk if the explicitly provided port number (i.e., 443 in this example) is hardcoded into an application as a security policy, but the hostname argument (i.e., 127.0.0.1:80 in this example) is obtained from untrusted input.
