I agree the advisory is too ambiguous, let me state the facts for clarity:
- All versions suffer from the same flaw, passing user data to the
unserialize() function, therefore in theory it is possible to achieve
PHP code execution in all versions from 1.4.9 up to and including
2.1.0.
- At this point, I can only prove code execution in versions 1.4.9 and
1.4.10 with payload [1] under the condition of running under PHP 5.3.3
or lower.
- Version 2.0.0 and above should only run in PHP 5.4+. However, this
is only enforced in version 2.0.1 and above. Therefore it might be
possible to run 2.0.0 on PHP 5.3.3, but I have not attempted this, and
it might be unlikely to find it deployed it anywhere in this
configuration.
- For versions 1.4.9 and 2.1.0, running under any PHP version, payload
[3] provides a proof of concept for arbitrary file deletion.
However, a fellow researcher has sent me a private mail indicating
that it might be possible to achieve code execution on any PHP
version. I am working on a PoC for that but it's not available at this
point.

Correct.

The 2nd one is correct, 1.4.9, 1.4.10 and 2.0.0.

Correct.

So in conclusion:
- theoretically code execution on all version
- in practice, code execution in 1.4.9 and 1.4.10 and arbitrary file
deletion in 1.4.9 to 2.1.0
It's all the same flaw and the same attack methodology, just different
proof of concept. At the moment I am not able to achieve code
execution on 2.0.0 and above with PHP > 5.3.3, but this might be just
a question of time.
So I think it is really only one CVE number.
