The bash vulnerability CVE-2014-6271 . Can it affect my CGI perl scripts? How to understand this?
问题 Yesterday the problem CVE-2014-6271 was reported which is the BASH Shellshock vulnerability. I am trying to understand if it can affect my server via my Perl CGI scripts. Can my code be affected in a malicious way - what would my code need to do to be affected? What should I check to verify this? 回答1: Yes it affects Perl if your CGI script spawns subshells, e.g., using the system() or open() functions or backticks. See this excellent Red Hat blog post.
