DescriptionNVD

Web::Passwd versions through 0.03 for Perl is vulnerable to RCE.

Web::Passwd is a small CGI application for managing htpasswd files using the htpasswd command.

The user parameter is not validated or escaped, and is used as the last argument on the command line, allowing for command injection.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in Web::Passwd 0.03 and earlier allows unauthenticated network attackers to execute arbitrary system commands with web server privileges via command injection in the user parameter. The CVSS vector indicates network-accessible, low-complexity exploitation requiring no authentication or user interaction. …
