Name: Environment and Setup Variables can be Viewed through processit.pl CGI script
Author: UkR-XblP /UkR security team:www.ukrteam.ru /GiN group:www.secure.f2s.com
Problems:The script allows several environment variables to be viewed by the attacker,
who can gain useful information on the site, making further attacks more feasible
Analysis:processit.pl dumps useful information (e.g. script location, SERVER_SOFTWARE,
DOCUMENT_ROOT, etc.) to the browser when the requested file provided is incorrect or
when request without parametrs.
Exploits: If site does not contain a incorrect file, thus the following URL displays
the environment dump. However, a similar url, when applied within the necessary
modifications to an unprotected site would yield the desired result:
http://www.victim.org/cgi-bin/processit.pl?FORMNAME=UkR
or
http://www.victim.org/cgi-bin/processit.pl
