An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-7478 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Php Php. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-7478/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-7478/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-7478","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-7478/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-7478","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-qcwh-7xv9-5mq2","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-7478"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"PHP scripting language","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service via infinite loop in PHP's exception handling when processing crafted serialized data.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"checkpoint","cpe":[{"product":"php","vendor":"php"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Zend/zend_exceptions.c in PHP, possibly 5.x before 5.6.28 and 7.x before 7.0.13, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted Exception object in serialized data, a related issue to CVE-2015-8876.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in PHP before 5.6.28","id":"CVE-2016-7478","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"php:php","products":["php:php"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Use after free in PHP 7.x","id":"CVE-2016-7479"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Null dereference in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-7477"},"products":["PHP before 5.6.28"],"published":"2017-01-11","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2688","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-07-20"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-2376","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-05-21"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2011-3268","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2011-08-25"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-4143","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2009-12-21"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-5557","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-12-23"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-2050","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-05-05"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Command injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-2051","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-05-05"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can cause a denial of service via infinite loop in PHP's exception handling when processing crafted serialized data.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-7478/"}
