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

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions PHP versions 5.5.x before 5.5.9

Description The issue allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by using incorrect data types, such as a string or array in place of a numeric data type. This can be demonstrated by an imagecrop function call with a string for the x dimension value.

Recommendations For PHP versions 5.5.x before 5.5.9, update to version 5.5.9 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider validating and sanitizing user input to ensure correct data types are used, especially for functions like imagecrop that expect numeric values.
