Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions PHP versions 5.2.6 and earlier

Description A directory traversal issue exists in the posix access function, allowing remote attackers to bypass safe mode restrictions. This is achieved by including a .. (dot dot) in an HTTP URL, which results in the URL being canonicalized to a local filename after the safe mode check has successfully run.

Recommendations For PHP versions 5.2.6 and earlier, consider updating to a newer version to mitigate the risk, as the issue is resolved in later versions. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to sensitive directories and files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
