These vulnerabilities occur in MgrDiagnosticTools.php (/controllers/MgrDiagnosticTools.php), in the component responsible for performing diagnostic tests with the UNIX wget utility. The application doesn't properly escape the information passed in the 'url' variable before calling the executeCommand class function ($this->dtObj->executeCommand). This function calls exec() with unsanitized user input allowing for remote command injection. The page that contains the vulnerabilities, /controllers/MgrDiagnosticTools.php, is accessed by a built-in command answered by the administrative interface. The command that calls to that vulnerable page (passed in the 'section' parameter) is: 'configuration'. Exploitation of this vulnerability yields shell access to the remote machine under the 'spiderman' user account." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "n/a" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "name": "95858", "refsource": "BID", "url": "http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/95858" }, { "name": "http://pastebin.com/UB8Ye6ZU", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "http://pastebin.com/UB8Ye6ZU" }, { "name": "https://community.sophos.com/products/web-appliance/b/blog/posts/release-of-swa-version-4-3-1", "refsource": "CONFIRM", "url": "https://community.sophos.com/products/web-appliance/b/blog/posts/release-of-swa-version-4-3-1" } ] } }
