MDVSA-2010:170 -- Mandriva wgetID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:300219 | Date: (C)2012-01-07 (M)2023-07-28 |
Class: PATCH | Family: unix |
A vulnerability has been found and corrected in wget: 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 . Packages for 2008.0 and 2009.0 are provided as of the Extended Maintenance Program
