NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream awstats package and not the awstats package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

AWStats 6.5, and possibly other versions, allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code by using the configdir parameter to awstats.pl to upload a configuration file whose name contains shell metacharacters, then access that file using the LogFile directive.
