PEAR::MDB2 is a database abstraction layer for PHP aimed to provide a |
40 |
common API for all supported relational database management systems. A |
41 |
LOB ("large object") is a database field holding binary data. |
42 |

<p> |
46 |
priyadi discovered that the request to store a URL string as a LOB is |
47 |
treated as a request to retrieve and store the contents of the URL. |
48 |
</p> |

<impact type="normal"> |
51 |
<p> |
52 |
If an application using PEAR::MDB2 allows input of LOB values via a web |
53 |
form, remote attackers could use the application as an indirect proxy |
54 |
or obtain sensitive information, including "file://" URLs local to the |
55 |
web server. |
56 |
</p> |
57 |
</impact> |
58 |
<workaround> |
59 |
<p> |
60 |
As a workaround, manually filter input before storing it as a LOB in |
61 |
PEAR::MDB2. |
62 |
</p> |
63 |
</workaround> |
64 |
<resolution> |
65 |
<p> |
66 |
All PEAR::MDB2 users should upgrade to the latest version: |
67 |

# emerge --sync |

# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-php/PEAR-MDB2-2.5.0_alpha1"</code> |
