Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDKSA-2006:216
http://www.mandriva.com/security/
_______________________________________________________________________
Package : links
Date : November 20, 2006
Affected: 2006.0, 2007.0
_______________________________________________________________________
Problem Description:
The links web browser with smbclient installed allows remote attackers
to execute arbitrary code via shell metacharacters in an smb:// URI, as
demonstrated by using PUT and GET statements.
Corporate 3.0 is not affected by this issue, as that version of links
does not have smb:// URI support.
Updated packages have disabled access to smb:// URIs.
