Descriptions

The map_yp_alias function in functions/imap_general.php in SquirrelMail before 1.4.19-1 on Debian GNU/Linux, and possibly other operating systems and versions, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in a username string that is used by the ypmatch program. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2009-1579.

La función map_yp_alias en functions/imap_general.php en SquirrelMail anteriores a v1.4.19-1 en Debian GNU/Linux, y posiblemente otras versiones y sistemas operativos, permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar comandos de su elección a través de metacaracteres shell en una cadena de nombre de usuario, que es usada por el programa ypmatch. NOTA: Esta característica existe por una resolución deficiente de la vulnerabilidad CVE-2009-1579.
