Description Johannes Segitz 2016-04-25 08:40:14 UTC 
php_snmp_error() Format String Vulnerability
    https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71704
    https://git.php.net/?p=php-src.git;a=commit;h=6e25966544fb1d2f3d7596e060ce9c9269bbdcf8

    It was discovered that the PHP php_snmp_error() function incorrectly
    handled string formatting. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause
    PHP to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute
    arbitrary code.

Use CVE-2016-4071.

Comment 2 Petr Gajdos 2016-04-27 09:16:39 UTC 
Tested on 13.2 and 12. 11sp3's and 11's php does not have php_snmp_error() function nor calls zend_throw_exception_ex.

Installed packages: php5, php5-snmp

$ cat test.php
<?php
$session = new SNMP(SNMP::VERSION_3, "127.0.0.1", "public");
$session->exceptions_enabled = SNMP::ERRNO_ANY;  // important!
try {
	$session->get("%x%x%x%x%x%x%x%x");
} catch (SNMPException $e) {
	echo $e->getMessage();
}
?>
$

BEFORE

$ valgrind php test.php
 ... many valgrind errors ...
$ 

AFTER

$ valgrind php test.php
  ... no valgrind error ...
