Well, getting my off lazy ass...

I ran the bugtraq proof-of-concept-exploits
(http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/{7187,7197,7198,7199,7210}/exploit/) for a
box that runs php-4.1.2-7.x.6. Here are the results:

 7210: does nothing
 7199: no proof-of-concept exploit
 7198: crashes httpd ("[notice] child pid 23937 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)")
 7197: does nothing ("Warning: socket_recv() expects exactly 2 parameters, 4 given in /data/www/intra/cgi-bin/uggabugga/exploit7197.php on line 3")
 7187: crahes httpd ("[notice] child pid 10276 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)")

So it is vulnerable, and likely exploitable, too.

As these are local privilege escalations only, I'm not overly worried.
