I really don't feel like re-compiling gentoo. Multiple people have posted what Perl code gets executed. The problem is this: $_ = `$_`; That just runs as a command whatever the remote attacker asked you to. Unless you had a tcpdump of all the traffic, you have no idea. Moral of the story: Always test unknown binaries on a sacrificial machine you're willing to rebuild, and always log the network traffic. ;) In the meantime, unless you have a Tripwire of your binaries *and* your source tree, I'd suggest re-downloading and recompiling, and hoping that your compiler hasn't had a Ken Thompson Special installed in it. ;)
