| Package(s): | wget |
CVE #(s): | CAN-2004-1487
CAN-2004-1488
|
| Created: | June 9, 2005 |
Updated: | September 27, 2005 |
| Description: |
wget 1.8.x and 1.9.x allows a remote malicious web server to overwrite
certain files via a redirection URL containing a ".." that resolves to the
IP address of the malicious server, which bypasses wget's filtering for
".." sequences.
wget 1.8.x and 1.9.x does not filter or quote control characters when
displaying HTTP responses to the terminal, which may allow remote malicious
web servers to inject terminal escape sequences and execute arbitrary code. |
