Descriptions

cPanel, when compiling Apache 1.3.29 and PHP with the mod_phpsuexec option, does not set the --enable-discard-path option, which causes php to use the SCRIPT_FILENAME variable to find and execute a script instead of the PATH_TRANSLATED variable, which allows local users to execute arbitrary PHP code as other users via a URL that references the attacker's script after the user's script, which executes the attacker's script with the user's privileges, a different vulnerability than CVE-2004-0529.

cPanel, cuando se compila Apache 1.3.29 y PHP con la opción mod_phpsuexec, no establece la opción --enable-discard-path, lo que hace que php use la variable SCRIPT_FILENAME para ejecutar un script en lugar de la variable PATH_TRANSLATED, lo que permite a usuarios locales ejecutar código PHP de su elección como otros usuarios mediante una URL que referencia al script del atacante con los privilegios del usuario, una vulnerabilidad distinta de CAN-2004-0529.
