Apache · Apache Http Server · CVE-2008-1734
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
PHP Toolkit versions prior to 1.0.1
**Description**
The issue is related to an interpretation conflict in the PHP Toolkit that could allow local users to cause a denial of service and read the contents of PHP scripts. This is achieved by creating a file with a one-letter lowercase alphabetic name, which triggers the interpretation of a certain unquoted `[a-z]` argument as a matching shell glob for this name, rather than as the literal `[a-z]` regular-expression string. As a result, the launch of the PHP interpreter within the Apache HTTP Server is blocked.
**Recommendations**
For PHP Toolkit versions prior to 1.0.1, update to version 1.0.1 or later to resolve the issue.
