php53: Arbitrary locations file write due absent validation of soap.wsdl_cache_dir configuration directive value

EPSS 9.75%
Description
ext/soap/soap.c in PHP before 5.3.22 and 5.4.x before 5.4.13 does not validate the relationship between the soap.wsdl_cache_dir directive and the open_basedir directive, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by triggering the creation of cached SOAP WSDL files in an arbitrary directory.
