| Detailed Description |
According to its banner, the version of PHP 5.4.x installed on the remote host is a version prior to 5.4.27. It is, therefore, potentially affected by a denial of service vulnerability.
- A flaw exists in the awk script detector within magic/Magdir/commands where multiple wildcards with unlimited repetitions are used. This could allow a context dependent attacker to cause a denial of service with a specially crafted ASCII file.
Note: This check solely relied on the banner of the remote HTTP server to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
