Synopsis:
Most current installations of PHP set up to run via FastCGI with suexec are vulnerable to a local exploit, where anyone with the ability to run code as the user the webserver runs as can gain access as any user with an account set up to run PHP. It is anticipated that this issue will especially affect shared web hosts who use FastCGI + suexec thinking it will give them additional security.
Conditions for exploitation:
=> PHP needs to be used via CGI or FastCGI.
=> The system must be set up to use suexec (rather than, say, having PHP run as an external FastCGI server).
=> The attacker must be able to run code as the same user that the webserver runs as. This is unlikely to be a problem for many local attackers, because there are a multitude of possible attack vectors, such as SSI, non-suexec CGI scripts, non-suexec PHP (if mod_php is also installed), and likely numerous other options.
=> Depending on the configuration, setting an open_basedir might protect an installation. However, this only applies if open_basedir is set, php-cgi is not installed directly into the web space, but is instead called from a script which doesn't pass any parameters from the script command line.
