A vulnerability has been discovered in Sophos Firewall’s user portal and Webadmin that could allow for arbitrary remote code execution. Sophos Firewall is a next generation firewall product which enables users to manage, detect and respond to threats on the network. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the web application. Depending on the privileges associated with the application, an attacker could view, change, or delete data.

Just wanted to let you know I updated the blog post with some more details:
apparently, this technique could be abused to bypass WAFs such as OWASP
ModSecurity CRS (Paranoia Level 1) and Cloudflare, check it out!

When the filter_var function is used in conjunction with the flags FILTER_VALIDATE_DOMAIN and FILTER_FLAG_HOSTNAME,
there is a vulnerability in PHP that allows the filter to be bypassed. This vulnerability could be used to introduce
vulnerabilities into code that would otherwise be safe to use.
Due to the lack of response from the PHP security team, I have decided to make this vulnerability publicly available
instead. Especially…
It was discovered that the IPsec implementation in the Linux kernel did not
properly allocate enough memory when performing ESP transformations,
leading to a heap-based buffer overflow. A local attacker could use this to
cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary
code.
