Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Access Restriction Bypass. PHP 4 before 4.4.5 and PHP 5 before 5.2.1, when using an empty session save path (session.save_path), uses the TMPDIR default after checking the restrictions, which allows local users to bypass open_basedir restrictions.
