Vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the target system.

The weakness exists due to an incomplete fix related to malformed function definitions in the values of environment variables. By using multiple attack vectors (DHCP, HTTP, SIP, FTP, and SMTP) involving the ForceCommand feature in OpenSSH sshd, the mod_cgi and mod_cgid modules in the Apache HTTP Server, a remote attacker can inject and execute arbitrary commands.This vulnerability exists due to incomplete fix for vulnerability #1 (CVE-2014-6271).

Exploitation example:

env X='() { (a)=>\' bash -c "echo date"; cat echo

Successful exploitation may allow an attacker to gain complete control over vulnerable system.

Note: this vulnerability was being actively exploited.
