phpDocumentor: Function call injection

phpDocumentor: Function call injection phpDocumentor bundles Smarty which contains an input sanitation flaw, allowing attackers to call arbitrary PHP functions. PhpDocumentor 2011-11-11 2011-11-11 213318 remote 1.4.3-r1 1.4.3-r1

The phpDocumentor package provides automatic documenting of PHP API directly from the source.

phpDocumentor bundles Smarty with the modifier.regex_replace.php plug-in which does not properly sanitize input related to the ASCII NUL character in a search string.

A remote attacker could call arbitrary PHP functions via templates.

There is no known workaround at this time.

All phpDocumentor users should upgrade to the latest stable version:


      # emerge --sync
      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
      ">=dev-php/PEAR-PhpDocumentor-1.4.3-r1"

NOTE: This is a legacy GLSA. Updates for all affected architectures are available since February 12, 2011. It is likely that your system is already no longer affected by this issue.
