Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in mapserver, a CGI-based web framework to publish spatial data and interactive mapping applications. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  • CVE-2010-2539 A stack-based buffer overflow in the msTmpFile function might lead to arbitrary code execution under some conditions.

  • CVE-2010-2540 It was discovered that the CGI debug command-line arguments which are enabled by default are insecure and may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code.
    Therefore they have been disabled by default.
