Title: Athena Web Registration Remote Command Execution Vulnerability
Severity: HIGH
Description:
Athena Web Registration is a freely available, open source web registration suite for Athena game servers.
A problem has been reported in the handling of user-supplied input by the Athena Web Registration scripts. Because of this, it may be possible for an attacker to gain unauthorized access to a vulnerable system.
The problem is in the handling of user-supplied input by the athenareg.php script. By passing escape characters to the script with arbitrary UNIX commands, it is possible for a remote attacker to execute shell commands in the underlying operating system. An attacker could take advantage of this issue to gain access to the vulnerable system with the privileges of the web server process.
