PHP before 5.2.12 and 5.3.x before 5.3.1 does not restrict the number of temporary files created when handling a multipart/form-data POST request, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource exhaustion), and makes it easier for remote attackers to exploit local file inclusion vulnerabilities, via multiple requests, related to lack of support for the max_file_uploads directive.

Title: PHP vulnerabilities
Summary: PHP vulnerabilities
Maksymilian Arciemowicz discovered that PHP did not properly validate
arguments to the dba_replace function. If a script passed untrusted input
to the dba_replace function, an attacker could truncate the database. This
issue only applied to Ubuntu 6.06 LTS, 8.04 LTS, and 8.10. (CVE-2008-7068)
It was discovered that PHP's php_openssl_apply_verification_policy
function did not correctly handle SSL certificates with zero bytes in the
Common Name. A remote attacker could exploit this to perform a
machine-in-the-middle attack to view sensitive information or alter
encrypted communications. (CVE-2009-3291)
It was discovered that PHP did not properly handle certain malformed images
when being parsed by the Exif module. A remote attacker
