HTTP_/usr/bin/cc command attempt
|
| |
Code:
p637
Severity: Warning
Description: Attempted cc command access via web
Impact:
Attempt to compile a binary on a host.
Corrective: Webservers should not be allowed to view or execute files and binaries
outside ofit's designated web root or cgi-bin. This command may also
be requested on acommand line should the attacker gain access to the
machine. Wheneverpossible, sensitive files and certain areas of the
filesystem shouldhave the system immutable flag set to prevent files
from being addedto the host. On BSD derived systems, setting the
systems runtimesecurelevel also prevents the securelevel from being
changed. (note:the securelevel can only be increased).
