Tests for presence of Apache Command Execution via .bat vulnerability Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The Apache 2.0.x Win32 installation is shipped with a default script, /cgi-bin/test-cgi.bat, that permits a possible hacker to execute commands on the Apache server (although it is reported that any .bat file could open this vulnerability.) A possible hacker can send a pipe character '|' with commands appended as parameters, which are then executed by Apache. Solution: This bug is fixed in 1.3.24 and 2.0.34-beta, or remove /cgi-bin/test-cgi.bat Network Security Threat Level: High Networks Security ID: 4335 Vulnerability Assessment Copyright: This script is Copyright (C) 2002 Matt Moore |
