NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php package and not the php package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.2 relevant fixed versions and status.

ext/standard/var_unserializer.re in PHP before 5.6.26 mishandles object-deserialization failures, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via an unserialize call that references a partially constructed object.
