Descriptions

GNU Wget 1.12 and earlier uses a server-provided filename instead of the original URL to determine the destination filename of a download, which allows remote servers to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a 3xx redirect to a URL with a .wgetrc filename followed by a 3xx redirect to a URL with a crafted filename, and possibly execute arbitrary code as a consequence of writing to a dotfile in a home directory.

GNU Wget v1.12 y anteriores usan un nombre de fichero proporcionado por el servidor en lugar de la URL original para determinar el nombre de fichero destino de una descarga, lo que permite a servidores remotos crear o sobreescribir ficheros de su elección a través de redirecciones 3xx en una URL con nombre de fichero .wgetrc seguido por la redirección 3xx en una URL con un nombre de fichero manipulado, y probablemente ejecutar código de su elección como consecuencia de escribir un fichero punto en un directorio home.
