Short explanation

Prior to version 1.2.31, Cacti suffers from a high-severity vulnerability because its previous blocklist for input validation omitted certain special characters [S0]. An authenticated administrator can save an input string containing these omitted characters to bypass the check [S0]. This issue has been patched in version 1.2.31 [S0].

Why does it matter?

It allows an authenticated administrator to achieve remote code execution on Cacti, severely compromising system security [S0].

What should be done?

  • Update Cacti to version 1.2.31 or later
  • Follow vendor advisories
Chain of evidence and sources2 verified claims

Cacti 1.2.31 öncesi sürümlerde girdi doğrulama engelleme listesi tek tırnak ve yönlendirme operatörleri gibi karakterleri dışarıda bırakmaktadır.

Yetkili bir yönetici bu eksiklikleri kullanarak doğrulama kontrollerini atlayabilir ve güvenlik açığını tetikleyebilir.
