apc_search_paths() function in the file apc.c when processing long
filenames.

A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary
code in PHP applications that pass user-controlled input to the
include() function.

</impact>
<workaround>
<p>
There is no known workaround at this time.
</p>
</workaround>
<resolution>
