CVE-2018-10545 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Canonical Ubuntu Linux, published on 29 Apr 2018. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.

An issue was discovered in PHP before 5.6.35, 7.0.x before 7.0.29, 7.1.x before 7.1.16, and 7.2.x before 7.2.4.
