Cspassword Security Vulnerabilities - February

CVE-2002-0917

CGIScript.net csPassword.cgi stores .htpasswd files under the web document root, which could allow remote authenticated users to download the file and crack the passwords of other users.

CVE-2002-0918

CGIScript.net csPassword.cgi leaks sensitive information such as the pathname of the server in debug messages that are presented when the script fails, which allows remote attackers to obtain the information via a "remove" option in the command parameter, which generates an error.

CVE-2002-0919

CGIScript.net csPassword.cgi allows remote authenticated users to modify the .htaccess file and gain privileges via newlines in the title field of the edit page.

CVE-2002-0920

CGIScript.net csPassword.cgi stores usernames and unencrypted passwords in the password.cgi.tmp temporary file while modifying data, which could allow local users (and possibly remote attackers) to gain privileges by stealing the file before it has been processed.
