From: info at flashman dot ru Operating system: Linux pr5 2.4.18-3 PHP version: 4.3.1 PHP Bug Type: Directory function related Bug description: vulnerability in mkdir and other unix-commands!
Description: ------------ php function mkdir allows hackers to execute various commands on the server. Some scripts need a directory name for user. They may enter '/www/somedir /usr/bin/wget ...' and command '/usr/bin/wget somethinghere' will be executed on the server without problems! It happens when php calls unix command mkdir.
