astrocam.cgi in AstroCam 0.9-1-1 through 1.4.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in an HTTP request. NOTE: earlier disclosures stated that the affected versions were 1.7.1 through 2.1.2, but the vendor explicitly stated that these were incorrect.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2002-1874 is a remote command execution flaw in AstroCam's astrocam.cgi. A crafted HTTP request using shell metacharacters can cause affected versions to run arbitrary operating-system commands. The record says affected releases are 0.9-1-1 through 1.4.0, correcting earlier incorrect version reports. Exposure is most likely where legacy AstroCam CGI deployments are reachable over HTTP. Modern organizations are unlikely to run this intentionally, but forgotten webcam, lab, archive, or embedded web-server deployments should be checked. Treat confirmed exposed instances as urgent because the impact is arbitrary command execution. For most organizations, priority is a targeted legacy-exposure check rather than a broad emergency response. Mitigation focus: Inventory systems for AstroCam and astrocam.cgi deployments.; Remove or disable exposed legacy AstroCam CGI installations where not required.; Restrict HTTP access to any required AstroCam service..
