===========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-285-1	       May 23, 2006
awstats vulnerability
CVE-2006-2237
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)
Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger)

The following packages are affected:

awstats

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 6.3-1ubuntu0.2 (for Ubuntu 5.04), or 6.4-1ubuntu1.1 (for
Ubuntu 5.10).  In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to
effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

AWStats did not properly sanitize the 'migrate' CGI parameter.  If the
update of the stats via web front-end is allowed, a remote attacker
could execute arbitrary commands on the server with the privileges of
the AWStats server.

This does not affect AWStats installations which only build static
pages.
