NASL family FreeBSD Local Security Checks NASL id FREEBSD_PKG_FDAD8A877F9411D9A9E70001020EED82.NASL description Several input validation errors exist in AWStats that allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands with the priviliges of the web server. These programming errors involve CGI parameters including loadplugin, logfile, pluginmode, update, and possibly others. Additionally, the debug and other CGI parameters may be used to cause AWStats to disclose AWStats and system configuration information. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 19185 published 2005-07-13 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2005-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/19185 title FreeBSD : awstats -- arbitrary command execution (fdad8a87-7f94-11d9-a9e7-0001020eed82) code #%NASL_MIN_LEVEL 80502 # # (C) Tenable Network Security, Inc. # # The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were # extracted from the FreeBSD VuXML database : # # Copyright 2003-2018 Jacques Vidrine and contributors # # Redistribution and use in source (VuXML) and 'compiled' forms (SGML, # HTML, PDF, PostScript, RTF and so forth) with or without modification, # are permitted provided that the following conditions are met: # 1.
