NOTE: a reliable third party reports that this is not a vulnerability, because it results in a more restrictive security policy.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=50063","http://lists.apple.com/archives/security-announce/2010//Mar/msg00001.html","http://news.php.net/php.announce/79","http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4077","http://www.mandriva.com/security/advisories?name=MDVSA-2009:302"],"products":["php:php"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T19:54:26.868835795+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2009-3559","score":0.02696,"percentile":0.85917,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
