A Recent bug discovered in the PHP allows integer overflow in unserialize() PHP
The vulnerability discovered by Security Researcher Symeon Paraschoudis of htbridge allows integer overflow in unserialize() PHP (version <= 5.6.1, 5.5.17, 5.4.33) on 32 bit Systems.
The Researcher used radamsa fuzzer (fuzzer for both text based generations and also binary file format mutations) and a python script created by him which uses the python-ptrace signal handling module and allows to catch any crashes and categorizes them depending on the signal number.
POC:
<?phpunserialize(‘C:3:”GMP”:18446744075857035259:{}’);?>
Result:
The bug exposes serializer to user-controlled data and can trigger a crash when parsing specially crafted serialized data with the [unserialized].
