Vulnerability Published: 2018-08-02
Patch Published: 2018-12-10

CPE [?]: cpe:/o:debian:debian_linux:9.0, p-cpe:/a:debian:debian_linux:php7.0

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

Multiple security issues were found in PHP, a widely-used open source general purpose scripting language: The EXIF module was susceptible to denial of service/information disclosure when parsing malformed images, the Apache module allowed cross-site-scripting via the body of a 'Transfer-Encoding: chunked' request and the IMAP extension performed insufficient input validation which can result in the execution of arbitrary shell commands in the imap_open() function and denial of service in the imap_mail() function.

Solution

Upgrade the php7.0 packages.

For the stable distribution (stretch), these problems have been fixed in version 7.0.33-0+deb9u1.

How to Run

Here is how to run the Debian DSA-4353-1 : php7.0 - security update as a standalone plugin via the Nessus web user interface (https://localhost:8834/):

Click to start a New Scan.
Select Advanced Scan.
Navigate to the Plugins tab.
On the top right corner click to Disable All plugins.
On the left side table select Debian Local Security Checks plugin family.
On the right side table select Debian DSA-4353-1 : php7.0 - security update plugin ID 119561.
Specify the target on the Settings tab and click to Save the scan.
Run the scan.

Here are a few examples of how to run the plugin in the command line. Note that the examples below demonstrate the usage on the Linux / Unix platform.

Basic usage:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl debian_DSA-4353.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with audit trail message on the console:

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -a debian_DSA-4353.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with trace script execution written to the console (useful for debugging):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -T - debian_DSA-4353.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Run the plugin with using a state file for the target and updating it (useful for running multiple plugins on the target):

/opt/nessus/bin/nasl -K /tmp/state debian_DSA-4353.nasl -t <IP/HOST>

Go back to menu.
