Esta vulnerabilidad permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar c\u00f3digo arbitrario en las instalaciones afectadas de Webmin. Se requiere autenticaci\u00f3n para explotar esta vulnerabilidad. La falla espec\u00edfica existe en la gesti\u00f3n de solicitudes CGI. El problema es el resultado de la falta de validaci\u00f3n adecuada de una cadena proporcionada por el usuario antes de usarla para ejecutar una llamada al sistema.
