NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rh-php56-php-cli package and not the rh-php56-php-cli package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

Integer overflow in the php_html_entities function in ext/standard/html.c in PHP before 5.5.36 and 5.6.x before 5.6.22 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact by triggering a large output string from the htmlspecialchars function.
