CRITICAL

PHP < 5.3.29, 5.4.x < 5.4.30, 5.5.x < 5.5.14 - Buffer Overflow via locale_get_display_name

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

The get_icu_disp_value_src_php function in ext/intl/locale/locale_methods.c in PHP before 5.3.29, 5.4.x before 5.4.30, and 5.5.x before 5.5.14 does not properly restrict calls to the ICU uresbund.cpp component, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (buffer overflow) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a locale_get_display_name call with a long first argument.
