Name: WebHints

Affected Systems: <= 1.03

Issue: Remote Command Execution Vulnerability

Description

***********
Madroot Security group has discovered a flaw in WebHints <= 1.02. There is a
vulnerability in the current version of
WebHints. This issue occurs due to insufficient sanitization of externally
supplied data to the hints.pl script
that allows a remote user to pass an arbitrary shell command which will be
executed by the script. An attacker may
exploit this vulnerability to execute commands in the security context of
the web server hosting the affected script.
