|
|
Dan Dennison reported that the diatheke.pl script used in SWORD does
|
|
not properly sanitize shell meta-characters in the "range" parameter
|
|
before processing it.

<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could provide specially crafted input to a vulnerable
|
|
application, possibly resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary
|
|
shell commands with the privileges of the user running SWORD (generally
|
|
the web server account).
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All SWORD users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-text/sword-1.5.8-r2"</code>
