Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2006:074 (php).
A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in phpinfo (info.c) in PHP <= 5.1.2
allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via long array
variables, including (1) a large number of dimensions or (2) long values, which
prevents HTML tags from being removed. (CVE-2006-0996) Directory traversal
vulnerability in file.c in PHP <= 5.1.2 allows local users to bypass
open_basedir restrictions and allows remote attackers to create files in
arbitrary directories via the tempnam function. (CVE-2006-1494) The copy
function in file.c in PHP <= 5.1.2 allows local users to bypass safe mode and
read arbitrary files via a source argument containing a compress.zlib:// URI.
(CVE-2006-1608) Updated packages have been patched to address these issues.
After upgrading these packages, please run 'service httpd restart'.
