Php · Php · CVE-2009-2687
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
PHP versions prior to 5.2.10
**Description**
The issue is related to the exif read data function in the Exif module, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) by providing a malformed JPEG image with invalid offset fields.
**Recommendations**
For versions prior to 5.2.10, update to version 5.2.10 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the exif read data function until a patch is available. Restrict access to the Exif module to minimize the risk of exploitation.
