Overview

phpseclib/phpseclib is a PHP Secure Communications Library - Pure-PHP implementations of RSA, AES, SSH2, SFTP, X.509 etc.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Server-side Request Forgery (SSRF) via the X509::validateSignature() function that follows a URL from Authority Information Access (AIA) extension without validation. An attacker can cause the server to initiate arbitrary outbound network connections by supplying a crafted X.509 certificate containing a malicious AIA extension.
