| Detailed Description |
According to its banner, the version of PHP installed on the remote host is 5.4.x earlier than 5.4.28, and is, therefore, potentially affected by a permission escalation vulnerability.
A flaw exists within the FastCGI Process Manager (FPM) when setting permissions for a Unix socket. This could allow a remote attacker to gain elevated privileges after gaining access to the socket.
* Note: This check solely relied on the version number of the remote PHP to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
