_______________________________________________________________________

Package : php

Enterprise Server 5.0
_______________________________________________________________________

Problem Description:

A vulnerability has been found and corrected in php:

The xmlrpc extension in PHP 5.3.1 does not properly handle a missing
methodName element in the first argument to the xmlrpc_decode_request
function, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of
service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) and possibly
have unspecified other impact via a crafted argument (CVE-2010-0397).

Packages for 2008.0 are provided for Corporate Desktop 2008.0
customers.

The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue.
