CVE-2010-1129: Input Validation
First published: Fri Mar 26 2010(Updated: )
The safe_mode implementation in PHP before 5.2.13 does not properly handle directory pathnames that lack a trailing / (slash) character, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass intended access restrictions via vectors related to use of the tempnam function.
