Descriptions
PHP before 5.2.3 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via (1) a long string in the pattern parameter to the glob function; or (2) a long string in the string parameter to the fnmatch function, accompanied by a pattern parameter value with undefined characteristics, as demonstrated by a "*[1]e" value. NOTE: this might not be a vulnerability in most web server environments that support multiple threads, unless these issues can be demonstrated for code execution.
PHP anterior a 5.2.3 permite a atacantes dependientes del contexto provocar denegación de servicio (caida de aplicación) a través de una (1) cadena larga en el parámetro pattern en el función glob; o (2) un cadena larga en el parámetro string en la función fnmatch, acompañado de un valor de parámetro pattern con características no definidas, como se demostró con un valor "*[1]e". NOTA: esto podría no ser una vulnerabilidad en múltiples entornos de servidores web que soportan múltiples hilos, a menos que estos asuntos se puedan demostrar para la ejecución de código.
