CWE-189  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:8 php5 to version 5.3.5-1 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.

Integer overflow in the mt_rand function in PHP before 5.3.4 might make it easier for context-dependent attackers to predict the return values by leveraging a script's use of a large max parameter, as demonstrated by a value that exceeds mt_getrandmax.
