Package: php5-odbc
Version: 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1+lenny4
Severity: important


http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=50370

I have a page which reproducibly overwrites non alloc'd memory (a write
of 8 bytes instead of 4 bytes at the end of the range). It is caused by
the call odbc_fetch_object() and the bad write in libtdsodbc.so.

Apparently in php_odbc_includes.h a len is declared as
SDWORD which is only 32-bit while should be 64-bit (SQLLEN).

Php error Log:
 ALERT - canary mismatch on efree() - heap overflow detected (attacker 'x.x.x.x', file '.../DbTest.php')
