AstroCam is prone to a vulnerability which may allow remote attackers to execute commands. This problem is reported to occur because the 'astrocam.cgi' does not sufficiently sanitize shell metacharacters from input supplied via CGI parameters. As a result, an attacker may cause commands to be executed through the underlying shell with the privileges of the webserver process.
