CVE-2008-3660
PHP 4.4.x before 4.4.9, and 5.x through 5.2.6, when used as a FastCGI module, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a request with multiple dots preceding the extension, as demonstrated using foo..php.

Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.35%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
