php-wrapper.fcgi does not properly handle command-line arguments, which allows remote attackers to bypass a protection mechanism in PHP 5.3.12 and 5.4.2 and execute arbitrary code by leveraging improper interaction between the PHP sapi/cgi/cgi_main.c component and a query string beginning with a +- sequence.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2012-2335 affects certain PHP CGI/FastCGI wrapper handling in PHP 5.3.12 and 5.4.2. A remote attacker could bypass a PHP protection mechanism and cause arbitrary code execution when vulnerable CGI handling is exposed through a web request. Most relevant exposure is legacy PHP applications running PHP as CGI/FastCGI with php-wrapper.fcgi or similar wrapper behavior. Systems using vendor-maintained packages may have received fixes through referenced PHP, SUSE, or HP advisories. Prioritize if legacy PHP CGI systems remain internet-facing. The business risk is remote code execution, but exposure is likely limited to old, specific PHP CGI/FastCGI configurations. Mitigation focus: Identify PHP 5.3.12 and 5.4.2 CGI/FastCGI deployments.; Apply applicable PHP, SUSE, HP, or distribution vendor updates.; Retire unsupported legacy PHP runtimes where feasible..
