Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Http-body Project Perl 1.08 (Project Management Software). It has been declared as critical. Affected by this vulnerability is the function HTTP::Body::Multipart of the component Temp File Name Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a privileges management vulnerability. The CWE definition for the vulnerability is CWE-269. The product does not properly assign, modify, track, or check privileges for an actor, creating an unintended sphere of control for that actor. As an impact it is known to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

HTTP::Body::Multipart in the HTTP-Body 1.08, 1.17, and earlier module for Perl uses the part of the uploaded file s name after the first "." character as the suffix of a temporary file, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct attacks by leveraging subsequent behavior that may assume the suffix is well-formed.

The weakness was published 09/02/2013 by Jonathan Dolle as #721634 as not defined bug report (Website). The advisory is shared at bugs.debian.org. The public release happened without involvement of Http-body Project. This vulnerability is known as CVE-2013-4407 since 06/12/2013. The attack can be launched remotely. The exploitation doesn't need any form of authentication. Technical details and also a public exploit are known. MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1068 for this issue. The advisory points out:

The following line in HTTP::Body::Multipart is not good: my $suffix = $basename =~ /[^.]+(\.[^\\\/]+)$/ ? $1 : q{};

A public exploit has been developed by Jonathan Dolle and been published immediately after the advisory. It is possible to download the exploit at bugs.debian.org. It is declared as proof-of-concept. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 71025 (Debian DSA-2801-1 : libhttp-body-perl - design error), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Debian Local Security Checks. The commercial vulnerability scanner Qualys is able to test this issue with plugin 166879 (OpenSuSE Security Update for perl-HTTP-Body (openSUSE-SU-2014:0433-1)).

Applying the patch #721634 is able to eliminate this problem. The bugfix is ready for download at bugs.debian.org. A possible mitigation has been published immediately after the disclosure of the vulnerability. The bug report contains the following remark:

I recommand the following regexp: my $suffix = $basename =~ /[^.]+(\.[\w]+)$/ ? $1 : q{};

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (87754), Tenable (71025), SecurityFocus (BID 62875†), OSVDB (98269†) and Vulnerability Center (SBV-42421†). If you want to get the best quality for vulnerability data then you always have to consider VulDB.
