            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

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.
