NVD Description

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

PHP through 5.6.27 and 7.x through 7.0.12 mishandles property modification during __wakeup processing, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly have unspecified other impact via crafted serialized data, as demonstrated by Exception::__toString with DateInterval::__wakeup.
