Summary
PHP 4.2.0 and 4.2.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via an HTTP POST request with certain arguments in a multipart/form-data form, which generates an error condition that is not properly handled and causes improper memory to be freed.
Exploit prediction
11.04% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 95% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-08).
