Description

PHP contains a flaw that may allow a context-dependent attacker to gain access to privileged information. The issue is due to the WDDX deserializer in the wddx extension not properly initializing the key_length variable for numerical keys. This may allow an attacker to read arbitrary parts of the stack memory via a crafted wddxPacket alement.
