cPanel is reported prone to a privilege escalation vulnerability. It is reported that the options used by cPanel to compile Apache 1.3.29 and PHP using the mod_phpsuexec option are insecure. These settings will reportedly permit a local attacker to execute arbitrary code as any user who possesses a PHP file that is published to the Apache web server.
