| Package | Affected versions | Patched versions |
|---|---|---|
| php | = 4.3.6= 4.3.7= 4.3.8= 4.3.9= 5.0= 5.0.0= 5.0.1= 5.0.2 |
The addslashes function in PHP 4.3.9 does not properly escape a NULL (/0) character, which may allow remote attackers to read arbitrary files in PHP applications that contain a directory traversal vulnerability in require or include statements, but are otherwise protected by the magic_quotes_gpc mechanism. NOTE: this issue was originally REJECTed by its CNA before publication, but that decision is in active dispute. This candidate may change significantly in the future as a result of further discussion.
