Title: Novell Forum Unspecified Tcl Command Injection Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

Novell Forum is a web-based forum application.

Novell Forum is prone to a command-injection vulnerability because it fails to adequately sanitize user-supplied input.

Attackers can exploit this issue by including arbitrary Tcl commands in the URL. Attackers can then execute arbitrary commands in the context of the webserver process. Successful exploits could compromise the application and possibly the underlying system.

Few technical details of the issue are available. We will update this BID as more information emerges.

Novell Forum 8.0 and prior versions are affected by the issue.

Affected Products:

  • Novell Forum 7.0
