This is a re-release of GLSA-200302-09 becuse the first post
contained some errors.
- From release notes:
"PHP contains code for preventing direct access to the CGI binary with
configure option "--enable-force-cgi-redirect" and php.ini option
"cgi.force_redirect". In PHP 4.3.0 there is a bug which renders these
options useless."
Read the full release notes at:
http://www.php.net/release_4_3_1.php
SOLUTION
It is recommended that all Gentoo Linux users who are running
dev-php/mod_php upgrade to mod_php-4.3.1 as follows:
emerge sync
emerge -u mod_php
emerge clean
