CVE-2010-0397: PHP

Medium severity, CVSS 5.0. EPSS: 11.5% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The xmlrpc extension in PHP 5.3.1 does not properly handle a missing methodName element in the first argument to the xmlrpc_decode_request function, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) and possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted argument.

Affected products

• PHP PHP: version 5.3.1 only
