CVE-2013-4113

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions PHP versions prior to 5.3.27

Description The issue is related to the improper consideration of parsing depth in the ext/xml/xml.c component. This can be exploited by remote attackers using a crafted document processed by the xml parse into struct function, potentially leading to a denial of service (heap memory corruption) or other unspecified impacts.

Recommendations For versions prior to 5.3.27, update to version 5.3.27 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the use of the xml parse into struct function until a patch is applied.
