Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1825-01

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1825-01 – PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language commonly used with the Apache HTTP Server. A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the xmlrpc extension parsed dates in the ISO 8601 format. A specially crafted XML-RPC request or response could possibly cause a PHP application to crash or execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running that PHP application. All php users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue. After installing the updated packages, the httpd daemon must be restarted for the update to take effect.

Red Hat Security Advisory 2014-1821-01 – Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 is a platform for Java applications based on JBoss Application Server 7. A resource consumption issue was found in the way Xerces-J handled XML declarations. A remote attacker could use an XML document with a specially crafted declaration using a long pseudo-attribute name that, when parsed by an application using Xerces-J, would cause that application to use an excessive amount of CPU. This release of JBoss Enterprise Application Platform also includes bug fixes and enhancements. A list of these changes is available from the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.3.2 Downloads page on the Customer Portal.
