CVE-2011-0753

Description

From CVE.org

Race condition in the PCNTL extension in PHP before 5.3.4, when a user-defined signal handler exists, might allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a large number of concurrent signals.

Statement

Red Hat does not consider this issue to be a security vulnerability since no trust boundary is crossed. Any process able to send signals to a running PHP process can terminate it by sending a carefully-chosen signal.
