Horde-Chora: Remote code execution Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200406-09 (Horde-Chora: Remote code execution) A vulnerability in the diff viewer of Chora permits a possible hacker to inject shellcode. A possible hacker can exploit PHP's file upload functionality to upload a malicious binary to a vulnerable server, chmod it as executable, and run the file. Impact A possible hacker could remotely execute arbitrary binaries with the permissions of the PHP script, conceivably permiting further exploitation of local vulnerabilities and remote root access. Workaround There is no known workaround at this time.
