Detailsinfo

A vulnerability classified as problematic has been found in ModLogAn 0.5/0.5.6/0.5.7/0.6/0.7.11. Affected is an unknown functionality of the component processor_web. The manipulation of the argument hostname with an unknown input leads to a path traversal vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-22. The product uses external input to construct a pathname that is intended to identify a file or directory that is located underneath a restricted parent directory, but the product does not properly neutralize special elements within the pathname that can cause the pathname to resolve to a location that is outside of the restricted directory. This is going to have an impact on integrity. CVE summarizes:

Directory traversal vulnerability in processor_web plugin for ModLogAn 0.5.0 through 0.7.11, when used with the splitby option, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) in the hostname of a log entry.

The weakness was disclosed 12/31/2002 (Website). The advisory is shared for download at securityfocus.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2002-2050 since 07/14/2005.
