AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

miniserv.pl in (1) Webmin before 1.070 and (2) Usermin before 1.000 does not properly handle metacharacters such as line feeds and carriage returns (CRLF) in Base-64 encoded strings during Basic authentication, which allows remote attackers to spoof a session ID and gain root privileges.

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

(1) Webmin 0.96 and (2) Usermin 0.90 with password timeouts enabled allow local and possibly remote attackers to bypass authentication and gain privileges via certain control characters in the authentication information, which can force Webmin or Usermin to accept arbitrary username/session ID combinations.

AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N

The maketemp.pl script in Usermin 1.070 and 1.080 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files at install time via a symlink attack on the /tmp/.usermin directory.

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

miniserv.pl in Webmin before 1.230 and Usermin before 1.160, when "full PAM conversations" is enabled, allows remote attackers to bypass authentication by spoofing session IDs via certain metacharacters (line feed or carriage return).

Severity
10
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Unknown vulnerability in (1) Webmin and (2) Usermin before 1.200 causes Webmin to change permissions and ownership of configuration files, with unknown impact.

First published (updated )
Severity
6.8
XSS
AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Webmin before 1.296 and Usermin before 1.226 do not properly handle a URL with a null ("%00") character, which allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS), read CGI program source code, list directories, and possibly execute programs.

First published (updated )
Severity
3.6
AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:P

Usermin before 1.220 (20060629) allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files, possibly related to chfn/save.cgi not properly handling an empty shell parameter, which results in changing root's shell instead of the shell of a specified user.

First published (updated )
Severity
5
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N

Webmin before 1.290 and Usermin before 1.220 calls the simplifypath function before decoding HTML, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files, as demonstrated using "..%01" sequences, which bypass the removal of "../" sequences before bytes such as "%01" are removed from the filename. NOTE: This is a different issue than CVE-2006-3274.
