+  <title>AWStats: Arbitrary code execution using malicious Referrer information</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    AWStats fails to validate certain log input, which could lead to the
+    execution of arbitrary Perl code during the generation of the statistics.
+  </synopsis>

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    AWStats is an advanced log file analyzer and statistics generator.
+    In HTTP reports it parses Referrer information in order to display the
+    most common Referrer values that caused users to visit the website.
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>
+    When using a URLPlugin, AWStats fails to sanitize Referrer URL
+    data before using them in a Perl eval() routine.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker can include arbitrary Referrer information in a
+    HTTP request to a web server, therefore injecting tainted data in the
+    log files. When AWStats is run on this log file, this can result in the
+    execution of arbitrary Perl code with the rights of the user running
+    AWStats.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    Disable all URLPlugins in the AWStats configuration.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All AWStats users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=www-misc/awstats-6.5"</code>
+    <p>
+    Note: Users with the vhosts USE flag set should manually use
+    webapp-config to finalize the update.
+    </p>
