AWStats 7.x through 7.8 allows XSS in the hostinfo plugin due to printing a response from Net::XWhois without proper checks.

In AWStats through 7.8, cgi-bin/awstats.pl?config= accepts a partial absolute pathname (omitting the initial /etc), even though it was intended to only read a file in the /etc/awstats/awstats.conf format. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2017-1000501 and CVE-2020-29600.

In AWStats through 7.7, cgi-bin/awstats.pl?config= accepts an absolute pathname, even though it was intended to only read a file in the /etc/awstats/awstats.conf format. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2017-1000501.

A Full Path Disclosure vulnerability in AWStats through 7.6 allows remote attackers to know where the config file is allocated, obtaining the full path of the server, a similar issue to CVE-2006-3682. The attack can, for example, use the awstats.pl framename and update parameters.

Awstats version 7.6 and earlier is vulnerable to a path traversal flaw in the handling of the "config" and "migrate" parameters resulting in unauthenticated remote code execution.

Unspecified vulnerability in awredir.pl in AWStats before 7.1 has unknown impact and attack vectors.

Directory traversal vulnerability in AWStats before 7.0 allows remote attackers to have an unspecified impact via a crafted LoadPlugin directory.

awstats.cgi in AWStats before 7.0 accepts a configdir parameter in the URL, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted configuration file located on a (1) WebDAV server or (2) NFS server.

Open redirect vulnerability in awredir.pl in AWStats before 6.95 allows remote attackers to redirect users to arbitrary web sites and conduct phishing attacks via unspecified vectors.

awstats.cgi in AWStats before 7.0 on Windows accepts a configdir parameter in the URL, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a crafted configuration file located at a UNC share pathname.
