An improper input sanitization flaw was found in the way Red Hat Network Satellite performed management of monitoring probes. A remote, authenticated attacker, with the privilege to administer monitoring probes, could execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user, the Red Hat Network Satellite monitoring service is running under, by providing a specially-crafted values for certain options of the monitoring probe display.

References: For further information about Red Hat Network Satellite monitoring entitlements and management of monitoring probes, please refer to the reference guide of your Red Hat Network Satellite installation.

PerlRun.pm in Apache modperl before 1.30, and RegistryCooker.pm in modperl 2.x, does not properly escape PATHINFO before use in a regular expression, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via a crafted URI.
