---------------------------------------------------------------------- To improve our services to our customers, we have made a number of additions to the Secunia Advisories and have started translating the advisories to German. The improvements will help our customers to get a better understanding of how we reached our conclusions, how it was rated, our thoughts on exploitation, attack vectors, and scenarios. This includes: * Reason for rating * Extended description * Extended solution * Exploit code or links to exploit code * Deep links Read the full description: http://corporate.secunia.com/products/48/?r=l Contact Secunia Sales for more information: http://corporate.secunia.com/how_to_buy/15/?r=l ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TITLE: TorrentFlux Arbitrary Command Execution and Directory Traversal SECUNIA ADVISORY ID: SA22880 VERIFY ADVISORY: http://secunia.com/advisories/22880/ CRITICAL: Moderately critical IMPACT: Manipulation of data, System access WHERE: >From remote SOFTWARE: TorrentFlux 2.x http://secunia.com/product/12225/ DESCRIPTION: r0ut3r has discovered some vulnerabilities in TorrentFlux, which can be exploited by malicious people to gain system access or to manipulate data. 1) Input passed to the "kill" parameter in index.php is not properly sanitised before being used as the command line argument to the "kill" command. This can be exploited to inject arbitrary shell commands via the ";" character. Successful exploitation requires valid user credentials. 2) Input passed to the "delfile" or "alias_file" parameters in index.php is not properly sanitised before being used to delete, create or overwrite files. The "delfile" parameter can be exploited to delete arbitrary files. The "alias_file" parameter can be exploited to create or overwrite arbitrary files, but an attacker cannot control what data will be written to them. Successful exploitation requires valid user credentials. The vulnerabilities are confirmed in version 2.1. Other versions may also be affected. SOLUTION: Edit the source code to ensure that input is properly sanitised. Grant only trusted users access to the application.
