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)

The remote Fedora 39 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2024-27a594f71d advisory.

    Update cacti and cacti-spine to version 1.2.27. This includes the upstream fixes for many CVEs, including     a critical remote code execution bug.

    - https://github.com/Cacti/cacti/blob/release/1.2.27/CHANGELOG
    - https://github.com/Cacti/spine/blob/release/1.2.27/CHANGELOG

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Cacti provides an operational monitoring and fault management framework. Version 1.2.25 has a Blind SQL     Injection (SQLi) vulnerability within the SNMP Notification Receivers feature in the file     `managers.php'`. An authenticated attacker with the Settings/Utilities permission can send a crafted     HTTP GET request to the endpoint `/cacti/managers.php'` with an SQLi payload in the     `selected_graphs_array'` HTTP GET parameter. As of time of publication, no patched versions exist.
    (CVE-2023-51448)

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

The remote openSUSE 15 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the openSUSE-SU-2024:0031-1 advisory.

  - Cacti is a robust performance and fault management framework and a frontend to RRDTool - a Time Series     Database (TSDB). 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`. Impact of the vulnerability     execution of arbitrary code on the server. (CVE-2023-49084)

  - Cacti provides an operational monitoring and fault management framework. In versions 1.2.25 and prior, 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`. Impact of the vulnerability
    - arbitrary SQL code execution. As of time of publication, a patch does not appear to exist.
    (CVE-2023-49085)

  - Cacti is a robust performance and fault management framework and a frontend to RRDTool - a Time Series     Database (TSDB). 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`.
    Impact of the vulnerability - execution of arbitrary javascript code in the attacked user's browser. This     issue has been patched in version 1.2.26. (CVE-2023-49086)

  - Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. 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`. To perform the cross-site scripting attack, the adversary needs to be an authorized     cacti user with the following permissions: `General Administration>Sites/Devices/Data`. The victim of this     attack could be any account with permissions to view `http://<HOST>/cacti/data_debug.php`. As of time of     publication, no complete fix has been included in Cacti. (CVE-2023-49088)

  - Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. A reflection cross-site     scripting vulnerability was discovered in version 1.2.25. Attackers can exploit this vulnerability to     perform actions on behalf of other users. The vulnerability is found in `templates_import.php.` When     uploading an xml template file, if the XML file does not pass the check, the server will give a JavaScript     pop-up prompt, which contains unfiltered xml template file name, resulting in XSS. An attacker exploiting     this vulnerability could execute actions on behalf of other users. This ability to impersonate users could     lead to unauthorized changes to settings. As of time of publication, no patched versions are available.
    (CVE-2023-50250)

  - Cacti provides an operational monitoring and fault management framework. Version 1.2.25 has a Blind SQL     Injection (SQLi) vulnerability within the SNMP Notification Receivers feature in the file     `managers.php'`. An authenticated attacker with the Settings/Utilities permission can send a crafted     HTTP GET request to the endpoint `/cacti/managers.php'` with an SQLi payload in the     `selected_graphs_array'` HTTP GET parameter. As of time of publication, no patched versions exist.
    (CVE-2023-51448)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
