Important: php8.5 security update (Amazon Linux 2023)

Published May 25, 2026 · Updated Jul 13, 2026

Ecosystem: Amazon Linux

Summary

Package updates are available for Amazon Linux 2023 that fix the following vulnerabilities: CVE-2026-7568: Signed integer overflow in metaphone() CVE-2026-7263: DoS attack via DOMNode::C14N(). In DOMNode::C14N(), improper removal of a xmlns libxml2 attribute from a doubly linked list can lead to a corrupt, circular linked list. The linked list is iterated in many places in PHP and libxml2, leading to DoS through segfaults, or temporal and spatial resource starvation. CVE-2026-7262: NULL pointer dereference in SOAP apache:Map decoder with missing <value> CVE-2026-7261: In PHP versions 8.2.* before 8.2.31, 8.3.* before 8.3.31, 8.4.* before 8.4.21, and 8.5.* before 8.5.6, when SoapServer is configured with SOAP_PERSISTENCE_SESSION, the handler object is persisted across requests via session storage. However, in the case SOAP requests results in an error, the persistance is handled incorrectly, resulting in freeing the object while keeping a pointer to it, which may lead to use-after-free. This may lead to memory corruption, information disclosure, or process crashes, with confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the vulnerable system. CVE-2026-7259: Null pointer dereference in php_mb_check_encoding() via mb_ereg_search_init() CVE-2026-7258: Out-of-bounds read in urldecode() CVE-2026-6735: In PHP versions 8.2.* before 8.2.31, 8.3.* before 8.3.31, 8.4.* before 8.4.21, 8.5.* before 8.5.6, due to improper sanitation of user data, it allows an attacker to compose an URL, which will cause the target to execute arbitrary JavaScript code (XSS) on the target's machine when the target is viewing the PHP-FPM status page. CVE-2026-6722: In PHP versions 8.2.* before 8.2.31, 8.3.* before 8.3.31, 8.4.* before 8.4.21, and 8.5.* before 8.5.6, the SOAP extension's object deduplication mechanism stores pointers to PHP objects in a global map without incrementing their reference counts. When an apache:Map node contains duplicate keys, processing the second entry overwrites the first in the temporary result map, freeing the original PHP object while its stale pointer remains in the map. A subsequent href reference to the freed node can copy the dangling pointer into the result. As PHP string allocations can reclaim the freed memory region, an attacker with control over the SOAP request body can exploit this use-after-free to achieve remote code execution. CVE-2026-44928: In uriparser before 1.0.2, the function family EqualsUri can misclassify two unequal URIs as equal. CVE-2026-44927: In uriparser before 1.0.2, there is pointer difference truncation to int in various places. CVE-2026-42371: uriparser before 1.0.1 has numeric truncation in text range comparison, if an application accepts URIs with a length in gigabytes. CVE-2026-12184: PHP: Failure to setup TLS with a remote server can result in a remote DoS
