NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php53-bcmath package and not the php53-bcmath package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:5 relevant fixed versions and status.

The SPL component in PHP before 5.4.30 and 5.5.x before 5.5.14 incorrectly anticipates that certain data structures will have the array data type after unserialization, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted string that triggers use of a Hashtable destructor, related to "type confusion" issues in (1) ArrayObject and (2) SPLObjectStorage.
