Directory Traversal Vulnerability in PHP 4.4.0 and Other Versions

CVE-2005-3054 · LOW Severity

AV:L/AC:L/AU:N/C:P/I:N/A:N

fopen_wrappers.c in PHP 4.4.0, and possibly other versions, does not properly restrict access to other directories when the open_basedir directive includes a trailing slash, which allows PHP scripts in one directory to access files in other directories whose names are substrings of the original directory.
