CVE-2015-4116
Use-after-free vulnerability in the spl_ptr_heap_insert function in ext/spl/spl_heap.c in PHP before 5.5.27 and 5.6.x before 5.6.11 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by triggering a failed SplMinHeap::compare operation.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (5.47%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
