CVE-2003-0950

High
Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

PeopleSoft PeopleTools versions 8.1x, 8.2x, and 8.4x allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands by uploading a file to the IClient Servlet. Attackers can guess the insufficiently random directory name and directly request access to the uploaded file.

Risk Assessment

The organization is at significant risk as attackers can gain access to the system and execute unauthorized commands. This could lead to data loss or system takeover.

Recommendation

It is recommended to implement additional security measures for file uploads and improve the directory name generation mechanism to be more random. Monitoring and restricting access to the IClient Servlet should also be considered.
