Descriptions

The exif_process_unicode function in ext/exif/exif.c in PHP before 5.4.37, 5.5.x before 5.5.21, and 5.6.x before 5.6.5 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (uninitialized pointer free and application crash) via crafted EXIF data in a JPEG image.

La función exif_process_unicode en ext/exif/exif.c en PHP anterior a 5.4.37, 5.5.x anterior a 5.5.21, y 5.6.x anterior a 5.6.5 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o causar una denegación de servicio (liberación de puntero no inicializado y caída de la aplicación) a través de datos EXIF manipulados en una imagen JPEG.

An uninitialized pointer use flaw was found in PHP's Exif extension. A specially crafted JPEG or TIFF file could cause a PHP application using the exif_read_data() function to crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running that PHP application.
