CVE-2011-4885  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-20  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Centos:6 php-recode to version 0:5.3.3-3.el6_2.5 or higher.

NVD Description

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

PHP before 5.3.9 computes hash values for form parameters without restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by sending many crafted parameters.
