Twiki · Twiki · CVE-2008-5305
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** TWiki versions prior to 4.2.4 **Description** The issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Perl code. This is achieved via the `%SEARCH{}%` variable, which is used for searching content within TWiki. **Recommendations** For versions prior to 4.2.4, update to version 4.2.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the `%SEARCH{}%` variable until a patch is available.
