What is CVE-2016-3171?

A vulnerability in Drupal 6.x prior to version 6.38, when utilized in conjunction with specific versions of PHP (before 5.4.45, 5.5.x before 5.5.29, or 5.6.x before 5.6.13), can expose the application to remote code execution risks. This issue stems from the mishandling of session data, wherein attackers can exploit the truncation of session information to gain unauthorized access and execute arbitrary code on the server. This poses significant security concerns and necessitates immediate attention and remediation.
