HTTP: Apache CouchDB _config Command Execution


This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in the CouchDB. Successful exploitation could result in arbitrary shell command execution with the privileges of the user running CouchDB.

Extended Description

CouchDB administrative users can configure the database server via HTTP(S). Some of the configuration options include paths for operating system-level binaries that are subsequently launched by CouchDB. This allows an admin user in Apache CouchDB before 1.7.0 and 2.x before 2.1.1 to execute arbitrary shell commands as the CouchDB user, including downloading and executing scripts from the public internet.
