DESCRIPTION:
Fedora has issued an update for php. This fixes a weakness, which can
be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

The weakness is caused due to an error in strtod.c when converting
values from a string type to double and can be exploited to cause an
infinite loop.

SOLUTION:
Apply updated packages using the yum utility ("yum update php
php-eaccelerator maniadrive maniadrive-data").
