Subject: [USN-290-1] awstats vulnerability

=========================================================== 
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-290-1              June 08, 2006
awstats vulnerability
CVE-2006-2644
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 5.04
Ubuntu 5.10
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 5.04:
  awstats                        6.3-1ubuntu0.3

Ubuntu 5.10:
  awstats                        6.4-1ubuntu1.2

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
  awstats                        6.5-1ubuntu1.1

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.

Details follow:

Hendrik Weimer discovered a privilege escalation vulnerability in
awstats. By supplying the 'configdir' CGI parameter and setting it to
an attacker-controlled directory (such as an FTP account, /tmp, or
similar), an attacker could execute arbitrary shell commands with the
privileges of the web server (user 'www-data').

This update disables the 'configdir' parameter by default. If all
local user accounts can be trusted, it can be reenabled by running
awstats with the AWSTATS_ENABLE_CONFIG_DIR environment variable set to
a nonempty value.
