CVE-2015-4605
Last modified
CVE-2015-4605 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The mcopy function in softmagic.c in file 5.x, as used in the Fileinfo component in PHP before 5.4.40, 5.5.x before 5.5.24, and 5.6.x before 5.6.8, does not properly restrict a certain offset value, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted string that is mishandled by a "Python script text executable" rule.. EPSS estimates a 7.39% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
