+PHP before 5.1.3-RC1 might allow remote attackers to obtain portions of
+memory via crafted binary data sent to a script that processes user
+input in the html_entity_decode function and sends the encoded results
+back to the client, aka a "binary safety" issue. NOTE: this issue has
+been referred to as a "memory leak," but it is an information leak that
+discloses memory contents.
