CVE-2013-6712  (opens in a new tab)
CWE-119  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Ubuntu:12.10 php5 to version 5.4.6-1ubuntu1.5 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream php5 package and not the php5 package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:12.10 relevant fixed versions and status.

The scan function in ext/date/lib/parse_iso_intervals.c in PHP through 5.5.6 does not properly restrict creation of DateInterval objects, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read) via a crafted interval specification.
