CVE-2018-1000888 (opens in a new tab)How to fix?
Upgrade Debian:8 php5 to version 5.6.39+dfsg-0+deb8u2 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php5 package and not the php5 package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
PEAR Archive_Tar version 1.4.3 and earlier contains a CWE-502, CWE-915 vulnerability in the Archive_Tar class. There are several file operations with $v_header['filename'] as parameter (such as file_exists, is_file, is_dir, etc). When extract is called without a specific prefix path, we can trigger unserialization by crafting a tar file with phar://[path_to_malicious_phar_file] as path. Object injection can be used to trigger destruct in the loaded PHP classes, e.g. the Archive_Tar class itself. With Archive_Tar object injection, arbitrary file deletion can occur because @unlink($this->_temp_tarname) is called. If another class with useful gadget is loaded, it may possible to cause remote code execution that can result in files being deleted or possibly modified. This vulnerability appears to have been fixed in 1.4.4.
