+ <title>Gallery: Arbitrary command execution</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ The Gallery image upload code contains a temporary file handling
+ vulnerability which could lead to execution of arbitrary commands.

+ <affected>
+ <package name="www-apps/gallery" auto="yes" arch="*">
+ <unaffected range="ge">1.4.4_p2</unaffected>
+ <vulnerable range="lt">1.4.4_p2</vulnerable>
+ </package>
+ </affected>
+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Gallery is a PHP script for maintaining online photo albums.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ The upload handling code in Gallery places uploaded files in a
+ temporary directory. After 30 seconds, these files are deleted if they
+ are not valid images. However, since the file exists for 30 seconds, a
+ carefully crafted script could be initiated by the remote attacker
+ during this 30 second timeout. Note that the temporary directory has to
+ be located inside the webroot and an attacker needs to have upload
+ rights either as an authenticated user or via "EVERYBODY".
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could run arbitrary code as the user running PHP.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There are several workarounds to this vulnerability:
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>Make sure that your temporary directory is not contained in the
+ webroot; by default it is located outside the webroot.</li>
+ <li>Disable upload rights to all albums for "EVERYBODY"; upload is
+ disabled by default.</li>
+ <li>Disable debug and dev mode; these settings are disabled by
+ default.</li>
+ <li>Disable allow_url_fopen in php.ini.</li>
+ </ul>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Gallery users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge sync
+
+ # emerge -pv "&gt;=www-apps/gallery-1.4.4_p2"
+ # emerge "&gt;=www-apps/gallery-1.4.4_p2"</code>
+ </resolution>
