Short explanation

CGI versions before 5.00 for Perl contain a vulnerability allowing Content-Disposition parameter injection via unescaped double quotes in the header attachment filename.

Why does it matter?

This flaw allows an application that passes request data as the attachment name to be manipulated into changing the filename under which the response is saved.

What should be done?

  • Follow the vendor advisory or patch reference to apply fixes
  • Upgrade the CGI package to version 5.00 or later
Chain of evidence and sources2 verified claims

Show the technical text from the sources

CGI versions before 5.00 for Perl allow Content-Disposition parameter injection via unescaped double quotes in the header attachment filename. header(-attachment => $name) writes $name into the quoted filename parameter of Content-Disposition without escaping double quotes. An application that passes request data as the attachment name can be made to send a second filename parameter, changing the name the response is saved under.
