--- Comment #6 from Scott Gayou <[email protected]> ---
Thanks for the reproduction notes ppisar. Quite easy to reproduce and gain code
execution as the apache process. As a note, SELinux does technically mitigate
this in that the UserDir functionality will not work without specific selinux
booleans (httpd_enable_homedirs and perhaps httpd_read_user_content). However,
it is unlikely that anyone would enable UserDir and not set the corresponding
selinux flags as the functionality would obviously not work until the booleans
are set.

Seems like this flaw could impact shared hosting the most.

My guess is that a good mitigation now is to disable UserDir functionality and
potentially .htaccess processing via AllowOverride None.
