Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in PHP.

Software Description:

handled indirect offset values. An attacker could use this issue to cause
PHP to consume resources or crash, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2014-1943)

It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled certain values when using
the imagecrop function. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause
PHP to crash, resulting in a denial of service, obtain sensitive
information, or possibly execute arbitrary code. This issue only affected
Ubuntu 13.10. (CVE-2013-7226, CVE-2013-7327, CVE-2013-7328, CVE-2014-2020)
