CVE-2018-9246 (2018-06-18)

The PGObject::Util::DBAdmin module before 0.120.0 for Perl, as used in LedgerSMB through 1.5.x, insufficiently sanitizes or escapes variable values used as part of shell command execution, resulting in shell code injection via the create(), run_file(), backup(), or restore() function. The vulnerability allows unauthorized users to execute code with the same privileges as the running application.

Changes for version 1.0.3 - 2019-09-29

  • Run 'verify_helpers' test only in AUTHOR_TESTING mode as it requires the Pg client applications to be installed on testers (including cpantesters, which don't all have those)
