The SWORD Project Diatheke Unspecified Remote Command Execution Vulnerability

The SWORD Project's Diatheke front-end is prone to a vulnerability that can allow arbitrary shell commands to run.

Successful exploits will compromise the application and possibly the underlying webserver.

SWORD 1.5.9 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.
