php7.0 vulnerabilities

Published Sep 7, 2026 · Updated Sep 8, 2026

Summary

It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled Apache map decoding in SOAP
servers with a typemap configured. A remote attacker could use this issue
to cause a NULL pointer dereference, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2026-7262)

It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled signed integer overflow in
the metaphone() function. An attacker could use this issue to cause an
out-of-bounds read, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-7568)

It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled circular symbolic links in
phar archives. An attacker could use this issue to cause unbounded
recursion, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-7260)

It was discovered that PHP incorrectly escaped backslashes in the pgsql
extension when standard_conforming_strings is enabled. An attacker could
use this issue to perform SQL injection via a backslash breakout.
(CVE-2026-17543)

  • High 8.1
    CVE-2026-17543 Public exploit

    SQL injection in ext-pgsql via E'...' backslash breakout

    Improper escaping of backslashes in attacker-provided parameters would allow for trivial SQL injection in PHP versions from 8.2.* before 8.2.33, from 8.3.* before 8.3.33, from 8.4.* before 8.4.24, and from 8.5.* before 8.5.9.

  • Medium 6.3

    Signed integer overflow in metaphone()

    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 metaphone() function in ext/standard/metaphone.c uses a signed int variable to track the current position within the input string. If a string longer th…

  • Medium 5.4

    Stack overflow in phar with circular symlinks

    Circular symbolic links in phar archives could lead to unbounded recursion, exhausting the C stack and crashing the PHP process, in PHP versions from 8.2.* before 8.2.33, from 8.3.* before 8.3.33, from 8.4.* before 8.4.24, and from 8.5.* before 8.5.9.

    NULL pointer dereference in SOAP apache:Map decoder with missing <value>

    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 a SOAP server has a typemap configured, the decoding process contains a mistake which checks the wrong variable in case of missing value element.  This…
