CVE-2004-1020

CVSS v2.0

5.0

Medium

VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: PHP version 4.3.9
Description: The addslashes function in PHP does not properly escape a NULL (/0) character, which may allow remote attackers to read arbitrary files in PHP applications that contain a directory traversal vulnerability in require or include statements, but are otherwise protected by the magic quotes gpc mechanism.
Recommendations: For PHP version 4.3.9, consider disabling the use of the addslashes function until a patch is available, and restrict access to sensitive files to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
