HTTP: PHPUnit PHP Remote Code Execution

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against PHPUnit. A successful attack can lead to arbitrary code execution.

Extended Description

Util/PHP/eval-stdin.php in PHPUnit before 4.8.28 and 5.x before 5.6.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via HTTP POST data beginning with a "<?php " substring, as demonstrated by an attack on a site with an exposed /vendor folder, i.e., external access to the /vendor/phpunit/phpunit/src/Util/PHP/eval-stdin.php URI.
