Vendor: barracuda
Use of a Third Party library produced a vulnerability in Barracuda Networks Inc. Barracuda ESG Appliance which allowed Parameter Injection.This issue affected Barracuda ESG Appliance, from 5.1.3.001 through 9.2.1.001, until Barracuda removed the vulnerable logic.
A remote command injection vulnerability exists in the Barracuda Email Security Gateway (appliance form factor only) product effecting versions 5.1.3.001-9.2.0.006. The vulnerability arises out of a failure to comprehensively sanitize the processing of .tar file (tape archives). The vulnerability stems from incomplete input validation of a user-supplied .tar file as it pertains to the names of the files contained within the archive. As a consequence, a remote attacker can specifically format these file names in a particular manner that will result in remotely executing a system command through Perl's qx operator with the privileges of the Email Security Gateway product. This issue was fixed as part of BNSF-36456 patch. This patch was automatically applied to all customer appliances.
