Synopsis |
| 17 |
======== |
| 18 |

| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Background |
| 23 |
========== |
| 24 |
|

Description |
| 41 |
=========== |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
The XML-RPC implementations of phpGroupWare and eGroupWare fail to |
| 44 |
sanitize input sent to the XML-RPC server using the "POST" method. |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Impact |
| 47 |
====== |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
A remote attacker could exploit the XML-RPC vulnerability to execute |
| 50 |
arbitrary PHP script code by sending specially crafted XML data to the |
| 51 |
XML-RPC servers of phpGroupWare or eGroupWare. |
| 52 |
|
| 53 |
Workaround |
| 54 |
========== |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
There are no known workarounds at this time. |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
