NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php-common package and not the php-common package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

ext/session/session.c in PHP before 5.6.25 and 7.x before 7.0.10 skips invalid session names in a way that triggers incorrect parsing, which allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary-type session data by leveraging control of a session name, as demonstrated by object injection.
