SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA31175

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/31175/

CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
System access

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
Filesys::SmbClientParser 2.x
http://secunia.com/product/19344/

DESCRIPTION:
Jesus Olmos Gonzalez has discovered a vulnerability in
Filesys::SmbClientParser, which can be exploited by malicious people
to compromise an application using the module.

The vulnerability is caused due to the module improperly escaping
characters contained within e.g. the names of shared directories.
This can be exploited to execute arbitrary commands by tricking the
user into processing a specially crafted directory shared by a
malicious SMB server.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.7. Other versions may
also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not connect to untrusted servers with applications using the
module.
