Package : PHP3, PHP4 
Vulnerability : bypassing safe_mode, CRLF injection 
Problem-Type : remote 
Debian-specific: no 
CVE ID : CAN-2002-0985 CAN-2002-0986 
BugTraq ID : 5681 

Wojciech Purczynski found out that it is possible for scripts to pass 
arbitrary text to sendmail as commandline extension when sending a 
mail through PHP even when safe_mode is turned on. Passing 5th 
argument should be disabled if PHP is configured in safe_mode, which 
is the case for newer PHP versions and for the versions below. This 
does not affect PHP3, though. 

Wojciech Purczynski also found out that arbitrary ASCII control 
characters may be injected into string arguments of mail() function. 
If mail() arguments are taken from user's input it may give the user 
ability to alter message content including mail headers. 

Ulf Harnhammar discovered that file() and fopen() are vulnerable to 
CRLF injection. An attacker could use it to escape certain 
restrictions and add arbitrary text to alleged HTTP requests that are 
passed through. 

However this only happens if something is passed to these functions 
which is neither a valid file name nor a valid url. Any string that 
contains control chars cannot be a valid url. Before you pass a 
string that should be an url to any function you must use urlencode() 
to encode it. 

Three problems have been identified in PHP: 

1. The mail() function can allow arbitrary email headers to be 
   specified if a recipient address or subject contains CR/LF 
   characters. 

2. The mail() function does not properly disable the passing of 
   arbitrary command-line options to sendmail when running in Safe 
   Mode. 

3. The fopen() function, when retrieving a URL, can allow manipulation 
   of the request for the resource through a URL containing CR/LF 
   characters. For example, headers could be added to an HTTP 
   request. 

These problems have been fixed in version 3.0.18-23.1woody1 for PHP3 
and 4.1.2-5 for PHP4 for the current stable distribution (woody), in 
version 3.0.18-0potato1.2 for PHP3 and 4.0.3pl1-0potato4 for PHP4 in 
the old stable distribution (potato) and in version 3.0.18-23.2 for 
PHP3 and 4.2.3-3 for PHP4 for the unstable distribution (sid). 

We recommend that you upgrade your PHP packages. 

wget url 
        will fetch the file for you 
dpkg -i file.deb 
        will install the referenced file. 

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for 
sources.list as given below: 

apt-get update 
        will update the internal database 
apt-get upgrade 
        will install corrected packages 

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the 
footer to the proper configuration.
