Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php-embedded package and not the php-embedded package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:6 relevant fixed versions and status.

ext/spl/spl_array.c in PHP before 5.6.26 and 7.x before 7.0.11 proceeds with SplArray unserialization without validating a return value and data type, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted serialized data.
