hey guys,

i'm just going through the latest batch of CVE's and it doesn't look like 
there's a fix for CVE-2007-4840 yet:

http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-4840

Description

PHP 5.2.4 and earlier allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of 
service (application crash) via (1) a long string in the out_charset 
parameter to the iconv function; or a long string in the charset parameter to 
the (2) iconv_mime_decode_headers, (3) iconv_mime_decode, or (4) iconv_strlen 
function. NOTE: this might not be a vulnerability in most web server 
environments that support multiple threads, unless these issues can be 
demonstrated for code execution.
