Title: PHP Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer Vulnerability

Overview:

The php_wddx_push_element function in ext/wddx/wddx.c in PHP before 5.6.26 and 7.x before 7.0.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid pointer access and out-of-bounds read) or possibly have unspecified other impact via an incorrect boolean element in a wddxPacket XML document leading to mishandling in a wddx_deserialize call.
