CVE-2010-3870
Published: Nov 12, 2010
Modified: Aug 7, 2024
PUBLISHED
Description
The utf8_decode function in PHP before 5.3.4 does not properly handle non-shortest form UTF-8 encoding and ill-formed subsequences in UTF-8 data, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass cross-site scripting (XSS) and SQL injection protection mechanisms via a crafted string.
