    qmailAdmin fails to properly handle the 'PATH_INFO' variable in
    qmailadmin.c. The PATH_INFO is a standard CGI environment variable
    filled with user-supplied data.
  
Impact :

    A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending
    qmailAdmin a maliciously crafted URL that could lead to the execution
    of arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running qmailAdmin.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."
