CSIRTS triage

What: The parse_str() function without a second parameter allows remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary variables via crafted input strings.
Who is affected: Applications using parse_str() without a destination variable parameter on affected PHP versions.
Urgency: Moderate; exploitation requires remote control of input to parse_str() and is context-dependent.
Action: Upgrade to a patched PHP version or ensure parse_str() is always called with an explicit second parameter.
