CVE-2012-1172
Last modified
CVE-2012-1172 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The file-upload implementation in rfc1867.c in PHP before 5.4.0 does not properly handle invalid [ (open square bracket) characters in name values, which makes it easier for remote attackers to cause a denial of service (malformed $_FILES indexes) or conduct directory traversal attacks during multi-file uploads by leveraging a script that lacks its own filename restrictions.. EPSS estimates a 6.37% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
