Released: 06 11 2005
Name: WebHints
Affected Systems: <= 1.03
Issue: Remote Command Execution Vulnerability

***********
Madroot Security group has discovered a flaw in WebHints <= 1.02. There is a
vulnerability in the current version of

executed by the script. An attacker may
exploit this vulnerability to execute commands in the security context of
the web server hosting the affected script.

It's possibile for a remote attacker to retrieve any file from a webserver
and execute it. Multiple files are affected with this problem.
