Medium
Reference: CVE-2007-3007
Title: PHP Permissions Privileges and Access Controls Vulnerability
Overview:

PHP 5 before 5.2.3 does not enforce the open_basedir or safe_mode restriction in certain cases which allows context-dependent attackers to determine the existence of arbitrary files by checking if the readfile function returns a string. NOTE: this issue might also involve the realpath function.
