Description |
Sun Solaris Answerbook2 shipped with the dwhttpd package contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to run commands remotely. The issue is due to the insufficient input validation for cgi scripts in the admininstration interface of Answerbook2. By sending a specially crafted URL request with shell metacharacters to port 8888, a remote attacker can run the commands with web user privileges, resulting in a loss of integrity.
