Severity: High Title: AWStats: Remote code execution Date: January 25, 2005 Bugs: #77963 ID: 200501-36

Synopsis ========
AWStats fails to validate certain input, which could lead to the remote execution of arbitrary code.
Background ==========
AWStats is an advanced log file analyzer and statistics generator.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 net-www/awstats < 6.3 >= 6.3
Description ===========
When 'awstats.pl' is run as a CGI script, it fails to validate specific inputs which are used in a Perl open() function call.
Impact ======
A remote attacker could supply AWStats malicious input, potentially allowing the execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the web server.
Workaround ==========
Making sure that AWStats does not run as a CGI script will avoid the issue, but we recommend that users upgrade to the latest version, which fixes these bugs.
Resolution ==========
All AWStats users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-www/awstats-6.3"
