Awstats · Awstats · CVE-2006-2644
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
AWStats version 6.5
AWStats (affected versions not specified)
Description:
The issue allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code by using the `configdir` parameter to `awstats.pl` to upload a configuration file whose name contains shell metacharacters, then access that file using the `LogFile` directive. Multiple vulnerabilities in the AWStats package may lead to disruption of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information, and can be exploited remotely.
Recommendations:
For AWStats version 6.5, consider restricting access to the `configdir` parameter and the `LogFile` directive to prevent arbitrary code execution.
For other affected versions of AWStats, at the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
