NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php-ffi package and not the php-ffi package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

php_openssl_matches_wildcard_name() in ext/openssl/xp_ssl.c underflows the length argument passed to memchr() when a TLS server certificate presents a wildcard name whose literal characters are together longer than the hostname being verified. A malicious server presenting such a certificate makes the PHP client read up to SIZE_MAX bytes past the end of a heap allocation. The path is reachable from any default client stream, because verify_peer_name is enabled by default.
