## Description

The Zend Engine in PHP 5.2 through 5.2.13 and 5.3 through 5.3.2 allows
context-dependent attackers to obtain sensitive information by interrupting
the handler for the (1) ZEND\_BW\_XOR opcode (shift\_left\_function), (2)
ZEND\_SL opcode (bitwise\_xor\_function), or (3) ZEND\_SR opcode
(shift\_right\_function), related to the convert\_to\_long\_base function.
