CVE-2017-7272 (GCVE-0-2017-7272)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2017-03-27 17:00 – Updated: 2024-08-05 15:56
VLAI
Summary
PHP through 7.1.11 enables potential SSRF in applications that accept an fsockopen or pfsockopen hostname argument with an expectation that the port number is constrained. Because a :port syntax is recognized, fsockopen will use the port number that is specified in the hostname argument, instead of the port number in the second argument of the function.
