Two vulnerabilities have been identified in Zend Platform, which could be exploited by malicious users to obtain elevated privileges.
The first issue is due to insecure permissions being set on certain files (e.g. "/usr/local/Zend/bin/scd.sh"), which could be exploited by attackers to inject and execute arbitrary shell commands with "root" privileges.
The second issue is due to an error in the way the "ini_modifier" utility handles the "php.ini" file, which could be exploited by local attackers to insert malicious content into the "php.ini" file and execute arbitrary PHP scripts with elevated privileges.
