Barracuda Spam Firewall Appliance contains a flaw that allows a remote code execution attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate user supplied supplied data submitted to the /cgi-bin/dig_device.cgi script. This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary code on the appliance, leading to a loss of integrity.
