CVE-2026-7258 Details
Description
In PHP versions 8.2.* before 8.2.31, 8.3.* before 8.3.31, 8.4.* before 8.4.21, and 8.5.* before 8.5.6, some functions, including urldecode(), pass signed char to ctype functions (like isxdigit()). On the systems with default signed char and optimized table-lookup ctype functions - such as NetBSD - this can lead to accessing array with negative offset, which can trigger a denial of service.
A vulnerability exists in PHP versions 8.2.* prior to 8.2.31, 8.3.* prior to 8.3.31, 8.4.* prior to 8.4.21, and 8.5.* prior to 8.5.6. Certain functions, including urldecode(), improperly pass signed characters to ctype functions like isxdigit(). On systems with default signed characters and optimized table-lookup ctype functions, such as NetBSD, this can result in accessing an array with a negative offset, potentially causing a segmentation fault and leading to a denial-of-service condition.
Users can upgrade to PHP versions 8.2.31, 8.3.31, 8.4.21, or 8.5.6 to address this vulnerability.
