Amazon Linux 2 : php (ALASPHP8.0-2023-008)
Discription

The version of php installed on the remote host is prior to 8.0.8-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2PHP8.0-2023-008 advisory.

– In PHP versions 7.3.x below 7.3.29, 7.4.x below 7.4.21 and 8.0.x below 8.0.8, when using Firebird PDO driver extension, a malicious database server could cause crashes in various database functions, such as getAttribute(), execute(), fetch() and others by returning invalid response data that is not parsed correctly by the driver. This can result in crashes, denial of service or potentially memory corruption.
(CVE-2021-21704)

– In PHP versions 7.3.x below 7.3.29, 7.4.x below 7.4.21 and 8.0.x below 8.0.8, when using URL validation functionality via filter_var() function with FILTER_VALIDATE_URL parameter, an URL with invalid password field can be accepted as valid. This can lead to the code incorrectly parsing the URL and potentially leading to other security implications – like contacting a wrong server or making a wrong access decision.
(CVE-2021-21705)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.Read More
