+ <synopsis>
+ An input sanitation error in PEAR Net_Traceroute might allow remote

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ PEAR Net_Traceroute is an OS independent wrapper class for executing
+ traceroute calls from PHP.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Pasquale Imperato reported that the $host parameter to the traceroute()
+ function in Traceroute.php is not properly sanitized before being
+ passed to exec().
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability when user input is
+ passed directly to PEAR Net_Traceroute in a PHP script, possibly
+ resulting in the remote execution of arbitrary shell commands with the
+ privileges of the user running the affected PHP script.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ Ensure that all data that is passed to the traceroute() function is
+ properly shell escaped (for instance using the escapeshellcmd()
+ function).
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All PEAR Net_Traceroute users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-php/PEAR-Net_Traceroute-0.21.2"</code>
