CVE-2016-7125

HIGH

PHP < 5.6.25 and 7.x < 7.0.10 - Remote Arbitrary Session Data Injection via Session Name Parsing

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

ext/session/session.c in PHP before 5.6.25 and 7.x before 7.0.10 skips invalid session names in a way that triggers incorrect parsing, which allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary-type session data by leveraging control of a session name, as demonstrated by object injection.
