CSChat-R-Box Remote Command Execution Vulnerability

CSChat-R-Box Remote Command Execution Vulnerability

csChat-R-Box is a web chat script. It will run on most Unix and Linux variants, as well as Microsoft Windows operating systems.

csChat-R-Box is prone to an issue which may enable an attacker to execute Perl code with the privileges of the webserver process.

For exploitation to be successful, the attacker must pass properly URL encoded Perl code in CGI parameters via a web request. For example:

http://host/cgi-bin/csChatRBox.cgi?command=savesetup&setup=PERL_CODE_HERE
