Description |
Finger Server contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to execute arbitrary shell command. The issue is due to the insufficient input check on "open()" in a perl script. By sending a specially crafted request, a remote attacker can run any shell commands under privileges of the webserver, resulting in a loss of confidentiality, integrity, and/or availability.
