CVE-2016-4971 – GNU Wget < 1.18 - Arbitrary File Upload

https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2016-4971

GNU wget before 1.18 allows remote servers to write to arbitrary files by redirecting a request from HTTP to a crafted FTP resource. GNU wget en versiones anteriores a 1.18 permite a servidores remotos escribir archivos arbitrarios redirigiendo una petición desde HTTP a una fuente FTP manipulada. It was found that wget used a file name provided by the server for the downloaded file when following a HTTP redirect to a FTP server resource. This could cause wget to create a file with a different name than expected, possibly allowing the server to execute arbitrary code on the client. GNU Wget versions prior to 1.18 suffer from an arbitrary file upload vulnerability that may allow for remote code execution. • https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/49815 https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/40064 https://github.com/gitcollect/CVE-2016-4971 https://github.com/mbadanoiu/CVE-2016-4971 https://github.com/dinidhu96/IT19013756_-CVE-2016-4971- http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/wget.git/commit/?id=e996e322ffd42aaa051602da182d03178d0f13e1 http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2016-06/msg00004.html http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-updates/2016-08/msg00043.html http://packetstormsecurity.com/files • CWE-73: External Control of File Name or Path •
