+ <p>An iDEFENSE Security Advisory reports:</p>
+ <blockquote cite="http://www.idefense.com/application/poi/display?id=290&amp;type=vulnerabilities">
+ <p>Remote exploitation of an input validation vulnerability
+ in AWStats allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary
+ commands.</p>
+
+ <p>The problem specifically exists because of insufficient
+ input filtering before passing user-supplied data to an
+ <code>eval()</code> function. As part of the statistics
+ reporting function, AWStats displays information about the
+ most common referrer values that caused users to visit the
+ website. The referrer data is used without proper
+ sanitation in an <code>eval()</code> statement, resulting
+ in the execution of arbitrary perl code.</p>
+
+ <p>Successful exploitation results in the execution of
+ arbitrary commands with permissions of the web
+ service. Exploitation will not occur until the stats page
+ has been regenerated with the tainted referrer values from
+ the http access log. Note that AWStats is only vulnerable
+ in situations where at least one URLPlugin is enabled.</p>
