CVE-2008-2107
Last modified
CVE-2008-2107 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The GENERATE_SEED macro in PHP 4.x before 4.4.8 and 5.x before 5.2.5, when running on 32-bit systems, performs a multiplication using values that can produce a zero seed in rare circumstances, which allows context-dependent attackers to predict subsequent values of the rand and mt_rand functions and possibly bypass protection mechanisms that rely on an unknown initial seed.. EPSS estimates a 3.39% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
