Apache for Win32 before 1.3.24, and 2.0.x before 2.0.34-beta, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters (a | pipe character) provided as arguments to batch (.bat) or .cmd scripts, which are sent unfiltered to the shell interpreter, typically cmd.exe.

Etomite Content Management System 0.6, and possibly earlier versions, when downloaded from the web site in January 2006 after January 10, contains a back door in manager/includes/todo.inc.php, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the "cij" parameter.

NOTE: vector 1 might be the same as CVE-2006-5290.

Multiple argument injection vulnerabilities in Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.5 and 3.0alpha allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a NULL byte (%00) and shell metacharacters in a (1) mailto, (2) nntp, (3) news, (4) snews, or (5) telnet URI, a similar issue to CVE-2007-3670.

clamav-milter in ClamAV before 0.91.2, when run in black hole mode, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters that are used in a certain popen call, involving the "recipient field of sendmail."

Argument injection vulnerability in Apple QuickTime 7.2 for Windows XP SP2 and Vista allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a URL in the qtnext field in a crafted QTL file. NOTE: this issue may be related to CVE-2006-4965 or CVE-2007-5045.

A certain ActiveX control in PDWizard.ocx 6.0.0.9782 and earlier in Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 exposes dangerous (1) StartProcess, (2) SyncShell, (3) SaveAs, (4) CABDefaultURL, (5) CABFileName, and (6) CABRunFile methods, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary programs and have other impacts, as demonstrated using absolute pathnames in arguments to StartProcess and SyncShell.

Insecure method vulnerability in the FPOLE.OCX 6.0.8450.0 ActiveX control in Microsoft Visual FoxPro 6.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary programs by specifying them as an argument to the FoxDoCmd function.

The Component Object Model (COM) functions in PHP 5.x on Windows do not follow safe_mode and disable_functions restrictions, which allows context-dependent attackers to bypass intended limitations, as demonstrated by executing objects with the kill bit set in the corresponding ActiveX control Compatibility Flags, executing programs via a function in compatUI.dll, invoking wscript.shell via wscript.exe, invoking Scripting.FileSystemObject via wshom.ocx, and adding users via a function in shgina.dll, related to the com_load_typelib function.

Unspecified vulnerability in Sun Solaris 8 directory functions allows local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via an unspecified sequence of system calls or commands.

eBay Enhanced Picture Uploader ActiveX control (EPUWALcontrol.dll) before 1.0.27 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via the PictureUrls property.

The shellescape function in Vim 7.0 through 7.2, including 7.2a.10, allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via the "!" (exclamation point) shell metacharacter in (1) the filename of a tar archive and possibly (2) the filename of the first file in a tar archive, which is not properly handled by the VIM TAR plugin (tar.vim) v.10 through v.22, as demonstrated by the shellescape, tarplugin.v2, tarplugin, and tarplugin.updated test cases. NOTE: this issue reportedly exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-2712. NOTE: this issue has the same root cause as CVE-2008-3075. NOTE: due to the complexity of the associated disclosures and the incomplete information related to them, there may be inaccuracies in this CVE description and in external mappings to this identifier.

The Netrw plugin 125 in netrw.vim in Vim 7.2a.10 allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via shell metacharacters in filenames used by the execute and system functions within the (1) mz and (2) mc commands, as demonstrated by the netrw.v2 and netrw.v3 test cases. NOTE: this issue reportedly exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-2712.

general/login.php in phpCollab 2.5 rc3 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in unspecified input related to the SSL_CLIENT_CERT environment variable. NOTE: in some environments, SSL_CLIENT_CERT always has a base64-encoded string value, which may impose constraints on injection for typical shells.
