FKIE_CVE-2007-1484

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2007-03-16 21:19 - Updated: 2026-06-16 22:37
Severity
Summary
The array_user_key_compare function in PHP 4.4.6 and earlier, and 5.x up to 5.2.1, makes erroneous calls to zval_dtor, which triggers memory corruption and allows local users to bypass safe_mode and execute arbitrary code via a certain unset operation after array_user_key_compare has been called.
