Argument injection vulnerability in the traceroute function in Traceroute.php in the Net_Traceroute package before 0.21.2 for PEAR allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary shell commands via the host parameter. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Argument injection vulnerability in the ping function in Ping.php in the Net_Ping package before 2.4.5 for PEAR allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary shell commands via the host parameter. NOTE: this has also been reported as a shell metacharacter problem.

Argument injection vulnerability in the sendmail implementation of the Mail::Send method (Mail/sendmail.php) in the Mail package 1.1.14 for PEAR allows remote attackers to read and write arbitrary files via a crafted $from parameter, a different vector than CVE-2009-4111.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the installer in PEAR 1.0 through 1.5.3 allows user-assisted remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) sequence in the (1) install-as attribute in the file element in package.xml 1.0 or the (2) as attribute in the install element in package.xml 2.0. NOTE: it could be argued that this does not cross privilege boundaries in typical installations, since the code being installed could perform the same actions.

Multiple PHP remote file inclusion vulnerabilities in Pearl For Mambo module 1.6 for Mambo, when register_globals is enabled, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via the (1) phpbb_root_path parameter in (a) includes/functions_cms.php and the (2) GlobalSettings[templatesDirectory] parameter in multiple files in the "includes" directory including (b) adminSensored.php, (c) adminBoards.php, (d) adminAttachments.php, (e) adminAvatars.php, (f) adminBackupdatabase.php, (g) adminBanned.php, (h) adminForums.php, (i) adminPolls.php, (j) adminSmileys.php, (k) poll.php, and (l) move.php.

Directory traversal vulnerability in PEAR::Archive_Tar 1.2, and other versions before 1.3.2, allows remote attackers to create and overwrite arbitrary files via certain crafted pathnames in a TAR archive.

Directory traversal vulnerability in zip.lib.php 0.1.1 in PEAR::Archive_Zip allows remote attackers to create and overwrite arbitrary files via certain crafted pathnames in a ZIP archive.

Directory traversal vulnerability in the "remember me" feature in liveuser.php in PHP Extension and Application Repository (PEAR) LiveUser 0.16.8 and earlier allows remote attackers to determine file existence, and possibly delete arbitrary files with short pathnames or possibly read arbitrary files, via a .. (dot dot) in the store_id value of a cookie.

The proxy server feature in go-pear.php in PHP PEAR 0.2.2, as used in Apache2Triad, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code by redirecting go-pear.php to a malicious proxy server that provides a modified version of Tar.php with a malicious extractModify function.

The Next action in PEAR HTML_QuickForm_Controller 1.0.4 includes the SID in the URL even when session.use_only_cookies is configured, which allows remote attackers to obtain the SID via an HTTP Referer field and possibly other vectors.
