CVE-2010-1130

Publication date 26 March 2010

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

session.c in the session extension in PHP before 5.2.13, and 5.3.1, does not properly interpret ; (semicolon) characters in the argument to the session_save_path function, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass open_basedir and safe_mode restrictions via an argument that contains multiple ; characters in conjunction with a .. (dot dot).
