NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php:7.4/php-pear package and not the php:7.4/php-pear package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

Archive_Tar through 1.4.10 allows an unserialization attack because phar: is blocked but PHAR: is not blocked.
