参考文献 説明

CVE-2006-7135

extract issue enables file inclusion

CVE-2006-7079

Chain: PHP app uses extract for register_globals compatibility layer (CWE-621), enabling path traversal (CWE-22)

CVE-2007-0649

extract() buried in include files makes post-disclosure analysis confusing; original report had seemed incorrect.

CVE-2006-6661

extract() enables static code injection

CVE-2006-2828

import_request_variables() buried in include files makes post-disclosure analysis confusing

潜在的な緩和策

Phases : Implementation
Use allowlists of variable names that can be extracted.
Phases : Implementation
Consider refactoring your code to avoid extraction routines altogether.
Phases : Implementation
In PHP, call extract() with options such as EXTR_SKIP and EXTR_PREFIX_ALL; call import_request_variables() with a prefix argument. Note that these capabilities are not present in all PHP versions.

脆弱性マッピングノート

理由 : This CWE entry is at the Variant level of abstraction, which is a preferred level of abstraction for mapping to the root causes of vulnerabilities.
コメント : Carefully read both the name and description to ensure that this mapping is an appropriate fit. Do not try to 'force' a mapping to a lower-level Base/Variant simply to comply with this preferred level of abstraction.

ノート

Probably under-reported for PHP. Seems under-studied for other interpreted languages.
