Summary

Oracle's Web Listener (a component of the Oracle Application Server), is installed and can be used by a remote attacker to run arbitrary commands on the web server.

Solution

Solution

If 'ows-bin' is the default CGI directory used by the Oracle Application Server Manager, then remove the ows-bin virtual directory or point it to a more benign directory. If 'ows-bin' is not the default then verify that there are no batch files in this directory.
