CVE-2015-4147

PHP <5.4.39, <5.5.23, <5.6.7 - Remote Code Execution

Title source: manual
STIX 2.1

Description

The SoapClient::__call method in ext/soap/soap.c in PHP before 5.4.39, 5.5.x before 5.5.23, and 5.6.x before 5.6.7 does not verify that __default_headers is an array, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by providing crafted serialized data with an unexpected data type, related to a "type confusion" issue.
