      CCBill's WhereAmI CGI Allows Remote Command Execution
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SUMMARY

    CCBill uses a CGI called whereami.cgi for its technical support needs, a
    vulnerability in the CGI allows remote attackers to execute commands on
    the server the CGI has been installed under. This would allow a remote
    user to compromise the server.

    DETAILS

    A vulnerability has been reported in CCBill whereami.cgi, which can be
    exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

    It is possible to supply system commands to the "g" parameter, which
    allows execution of arbitrary commands with the privileges of the web
    service.

    An example was included in the original advisory:
    http://[victim]/ccbill/whereami.cgi?g=cat%20../../../../etc/password

    Solution:
    Remove the whereami.cgi from the server's CGI path.
