Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. Affected versions are subject to a Stored Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability which allows an authenticated user to poison data stored in the _cacti_'s database. These data will be viewed by administrative _cacti_ accounts and execute JavaScript code in the victim's browser at view-time. The script under `host.php` is used to monitor and manage hosts in the _cacti_ app, hence displays useful information such as data queries and verbose logs. _CENSUS_ found that an adversary that is able to configure a data-query template with malicious code appended in the template path, in order to deploy a stored XSS attack against any user with the _General Administration>Sites/Devices/Data_ privileges. A user that possesses the _Template Editor>Data Queries_ permissions can configure the data query template path in _cacti_. Please note that such a user may be a low privileged user. This configuration occurs through `http://<HOST>/cacti/data_queries.php` by editing an existing or adding a new data query template. If a template is linked to a device then the formatted template path will be rendered in the device's management page, when a _verbose data query_ is requested. This vulnerability has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to update should manually filter HTML output.

    (CVE-2023-39513)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

  - Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. Affected versions are
    subject to a SQL injection discovered in graph_view.php. Since guest users can access graph_view.php
    without authentication by default, if guest users are being utilized in an enabled state, there could be
    the potential for significant damage. Attackers may exploit this vulnerability, and there may be
    possibilities for actions such as the usurpation of administrative privileges or remote code execution.
    This issue has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known
    workarounds for this vulnerability. (CVE-2023-39361)

  - Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. There are two instances of
    insecure deserialization in Cacti version 1.2.24. While a viable gadget chain exists in Cacti’s vendor
    directory (phpseclib), the necessary gadgets are not included, making them inaccessible and the insecure
    deserializations not exploitable. Each instance of insecure deserialization is due to using the
    unserialize function without sanitizing the user input. Cacti has a “safe” deserialization that attempts
    to sanitize the content and check for specific values before calling unserialize, but it isn’t used in
    these instances. The vulnerable code lies in graphs_new.php, specifically within the host_new_graphs_save
    function. This issue has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no
    known workarounds for this vulnerability. (CVE-2023-30534)

  - Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. A defect in the sql_save
    function was discovered. When the column type is numeric, the sql_save function directly utilizes user
    input. Many files and functions calling the sql_save function do not perform prior validation of user
    input, leading to the existence of multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in Cacti. This allows
    authenticated users to exploit these SQL injection vulnerabilities to perform privilege escalation and
    remote code execution. This issue has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade.
    There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability. (CVE-2023-39357)

  - Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. An authenticated SQL
    injection vulnerability was discovered which allows authenticated users to perform privilege escalation
    and remote code execution. The vulnerability resides in the `reports_user.php` file. In
    `ajax_get_branches`, the `tree_id` parameter is passed to the `reports_get_branch_select` function without
    any validation. This issue has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade. There are
    no known workarounds for this vulnerability. (CVE-2023-39358)

  - Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. An authenticated SQL
    injection vulnerability was discovered which allows authenticated users to perform privilege escalation
    and remote code execution. The vulnerability resides in the `graphs.php` file. When dealing with the cases
    of ajax_hosts and ajax_hosts_noany, if the `site_id` parameter is greater than 0, it is directly reflected
    in the WHERE clause of the SQL statement. This creates an SQL injection vulnerability. This issue has been
    addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this
    vulnerability. (CVE-2023-39359)

    Multiple vulnerabilities were found in Cacti, a network monitoring     system. An attacker could manipulate the database, execute code     remotely, launch DoS (denial-of-service) attacks or impersonate Cacti     users, in some situations.

    CVE-2023-39357

        When the column type is numeric, the sql_save function directly         utilizes user input. Many files and functions calling the sql_save         function do not perform prior validation of user input, leading to         the existence of multiple SQL injection vulnerabilities in         Cacti. This allows authenticated users to exploit these SQL         injection vulnerabilities to perform privilege escalation and         remote code execution.

    CVE-2023-39360

        Stored Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability allows an         authenticated user to poison data. The vulnerability is found in         `graphs_new.php`. Several validations are performed, but the         `returnto` parameter is directly passed to `form_save_button`. In         order to bypass this validation, returnto must contain `host.php`.

    CVE-2023-39361

        SQL injection discovered in graph_view.php. Since guest users can         access graph_view.php without authentication by default, if guest         users are being utilized in an enabled state, there could be the         potential for significant damage. Attackers may exploit this         vulnerability, and there may be povssibilities for actions such as         the usurpation of administrative privileges or remote code         execution.

    CVE-2023-39362

        An authenticated privileged user, can use a malicious string in         the SNMP options of a Device, performing command injection and         obtaining remote code execution on the underlying server. The         `lib/snmp.php` file has a set of functions, with similar behavior,         that accept in input some variables and place them into an `exec`         call without a proper escape or validation.

    CVE-2023-39364

        Users with console access can be redirected to an arbitrary         website after a change password performed via a specifically         crafted URL. The `auth_changepassword.php` file accepts `ref` as a         URL parameter and reflects it in the form used to perform the         change password. It's value is used to perform a redirect via         `header` PHP function. A user can be tricked in performing the         change password operation, e.g., via a phishing message, and then         interacting with the malicious website where the redirection has         been performed, e.g., downloading malwares, providing credentials,         etc.

    CVE-2023-39365

        Issues with Cacti Regular Expression validation combined with the         external links feature can lead to limited SQL Injections and         subsequent data leakage.

    CVE-2023-39513

        Stored Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability which allows an         authenticated user to poison data stored in the _cacti_'s         database. The script under `host.php` is used to monitor and         manage hosts in the _cacti_ app, hence displays useful information         such as data queries and verbose logs.

    CVE-2023-39515

        Stored Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability allows an         authenticated user to poison data stored in the cacti's         database. These data will be viewed by administrative cacti         accounts and execute JavaScript code in the victim's browser at         view-time. The script under `data_debug.php` displays data source         related debugging information such as _data source paths, polling         settings, meta-data on the data source.

    CVE-2023-39516

        Stored Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability which allows an         authenticated user to poison data stored in the _cacti_'s         database. These data will be viewed by administrative _cacti_         accounts and execute JavaScript code in the victim's browser at         view-time. The script under `data_sources.php` displays the data         source management information (e.g. data source path, polling         configuration etc.) for different data visualizations of the
        _cacti_ app.

    CVE-2023-49084

        While using the detected SQL Injection and insufficient processing         of the include file path, it is possible to execute arbitrary code         on the server. Exploitation of the vulnerability is possible for         an authorized user. The vulnerable component is the `link.php`.

    CVE-2023-49085

        It is possible to execute arbitrary SQL code through the         `pollers.php` script. An authorized user may be able to execute         arbitrary SQL code. The vulnerable component is the `pollers.php`.

    CVE-2023-49086

        Bypassing an earlier fix (CVE-2023-39360) that leads to a DOM XSS         attack. Exploitation of the vulnerability is possible for an         authorized user. The vulnerable component is the `graphs_new.php`.

    CVE-2023-49088

        The fix applied for CVE-2023-39515 in version 1.2.25 is incomplete         as it enables an adversary to have a victim browser execute         malicious code when a victim user hovers their mouse over the         malicious data source path in `data_debug.php`.

  - Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. Affected versions are     subject to a Stored Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability which allows an authenticated user to poison     data stored in the _cacti_'s database. These data will be viewed by administrative _cacti_ accounts and     execute JavaScript code in the victim's browser at view-time. The script under `host.php` is used to     monitor and manage hosts in the _cacti_ app, hence displays useful information such as data queries and     verbose logs. _CENSUS_ found that an adversary that is able to configure a data-query template with     malicious code appended in the template path, in order to deploy a stored XSS attack against any user with     the _General Administration>Sites/Devices/Data_ privileges. A user that possesses the _Template     Editor>Data Queries_ permissions can configure the data query template path in _cacti_. Please note that     such a user may be a low privileged user. This configuration occurs through     `http://<HOST>/cacti/data_queries.php` by editing an existing or adding a new data query template. If a     template is linked to a device then the formatted template path will be rendered in the device's     management page, when a _verbose data query_ is requested. This vulnerability has been addressed in     version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to update should manually filter HTML output.
