PHP PEAR

PECL in the download utility class in the Installer in PEAR Base System v1.10.1 does not validate file types and filenames after a redirect, which allows remote HTTP servers to overwrite files via crafted responses, as demonstrated by a .htaccess overwrite.

The proxy server feature in go-pear.php in PHP PEAR 0.2.2, as used in Apache2Triad, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code by redirecting go-pear.php to a malicious proxy server that provides a modified version of Tar.php with a malicious extractModify function.

Unspecified vulnerability in PEAR installer 1.4.2 and earlier allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted package that can execute code when the pear command is executed or when the Web/Gtk frontend is loaded.

The installer in PEAR before 1.9.2 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the package.xml file, related to the (1) download_dir, (2) cache_dir, (3) tmp_dir, and (4) pear-build-download directories, a different vulnerability than CVE-2007-2519.

The installer in PEAR 1.9.2 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the package.xml file, related to the (1) download_dir, (2) cache_dir, (3) tmp_dir, and (4) pear-build-download directories. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2011-1072.
