HIGH

PHP 7.2.0-7.2.27, 7.3.0-7.3.14, 7.4.0-7.4.2 - Denial of Service via File Upload Progress Cleanup

Title source: llm
STIX 2.1

Description

In PHP versions 7.2.x below 7.2.28, 7.3.x below 7.3.15 and 7.4.x below 7.4.3, when using file upload functionality, if upload progress tracking is enabled, but session.upload_progress.cleanup is set to 0 (disabled), and the file upload fails, the upload procedure would try to clean up data that does not exist and encounter null pointer dereference, which would likely lead to a crash.
