https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1623265 Bug ID: 1623265 Summary: CVE-2011-2767 mod_perl: arbitrary Perl code execution in the context of the user account via a user-owned .htaccess Product: Security Response Component: vulnerability Keywords: Security Severity: medium Priority: medium Assignee: security-response-team@xxxxxxxxxx Reporter: lpardo@xxxxxxxxxx CC: hhorak@xxxxxxxxxx, jkaluza@xxxxxxxxxx, jorton@xxxxxxxxxx, perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, perl-maint-list@xxxxxxxxxx, ppisar@xxxxxxxxxx A flaw was found in mod_perl 2.0 through 2.0.10 which allows attackers to execute arbitrary Perl code by placing it in a user-owned .htaccess file, because (contrary to the documentation) there is no configuration option that permits Perl code for the administrator's control of HTTP request processing without also permitting unprivileged users to run Perl code in the context of the user account that runs Apache HTTP Server processes.
