phpCollab 2.2/2.3/2.4/2.5 os command injection

CVSS Meta Temp Score
CVSS is a standardized scoring system to determine possibilities of attacks. The Temp Score considers temporal factors like disclosure, exploit and countermeasures. The unique Meta Score calculates the average score of different sources to provide a normalized scoring system.
Current Exploit Price (≈)
Our analysts are monitoring exploit markets and are in contact with vulnerability brokers. The range indicates the observed or calculated exploit price to be seen on exploit markets. A good indicator to understand the monetary effort required for and the popularity of an attack.
CTI Interest Score
Our Cyber Threat Intelligence team is monitoring different web sites, mailing lists, exploit markets and social media networks. The CTI Interest Score identifies the interest of attackers and the security community for this specific vulnerability in real-time. A high score indicates an elevated risk to be targeted for this vulnerability.

Summaryinfo

A vulnerability was found in phpCollab 2.2/2.3/2.4/2.5. It has been rated as critical. Impacted is an unknown function. Performing a manipulation results in os command injection. This vulnerability was named CVE-2008-4304. There is no available exploit.

Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as very critical, was found in phpCollab 2.2/2.3/2.4/2.5. This affects an unknown function. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a os command injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-78. The product constructs all or part of an OS command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended OS command when it is sent to a downstream component. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The summary by CVE is:

general/login.php in phpCollab 2.5 rc3 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in unspecified input related to the SSL_CLIENT_CERT environment variable. NOTE: in some environments, SSL_CLIENT_CERT always has a base64-encoded string value, which may impose constraints on injection for typical shells.

The bug was discovered 12/21/2008. The weakness was presented 12/23/2008 by Christian Hoffmann with Gentoo (Website). The advisory is shared at xforce.iss.net. This vulnerability is uniquely identified as CVE-2008-4304 since 09/29/2008. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. No form of authentication is needed for exploitation. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available. The price for an exploit might be around USD at the moment (estimation calculated on 08/23/2019). MITRE ATT&CK project uses the attack technique T1202 for this issue.

The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 35257 (GLSA-200812-20 : phpCollab: Multiple vulnerabilities), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Gentoo Local Security Checks and running in the context l.

A possible mitigation has been published before and not just after the disclosure of the vulnerability.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (47522), Tenable (35257), SecurityFocus (BID 32964†), OSVDB (50949†) and Secunia (SA33258†). See VDB-29400, VDB-45634 and VDB-45632 for similar entries. Several companies clearly confirm that VulDB is the primary source for best vulnerability data.
