Bug ID: 1623265
Summary: CVE-2011-2767 mod_perl: arbitrary Perl code execution
in the context of the user account via a user-owned
.htaccess
Product: Security Response
Component: vulnerability
Keywords: Security
Severity: medium
Priority: medium
Assignee: security-response-team(a)redhat.com
Reporter: lpardo(a)redhat.com

A flaw was found in mod_perl 2.0 through 2.0.10 which allows attackers to
execute arbitrary Perl code by placing it in a user-owned .htaccess file,
because (contrary to the documentation) there is no configuration option that
permits Perl code for the administrator's control of HTTP request processing
without also permitting unprivileged users to run Perl code in the context of
the user account that runs Apache HTTP Server processes.
