Package : cacti
Vulnerability : several
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE IDs : CAN-2005-1524 CAN-2005-1525 CAN-2005-1526 CAN-2005-2148 CAN-2005-2149
Debian Bug : 316590 315703
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in cacti, a round-robin
database (RRD) tool that helps create graphs from database
information. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project
identifies the following problems:
CAN-2005-1524
Maciej Piotr Falkiewicz and an anonymous researcher discovered an
input validation bug that allows an attacker to include arbitrary
PHP code from remote sites which will allow the execution of
arbitrary code on the server running cacti.
CAN-2005-1525
Due to mising input validation cacti allows a remote attacker to
insert arbitrary SQL statements.
CAN-2005-1526
Maciej Piotr Falkiewicz discovered an input validation bug that
allows an attacker to include arbitrary PHP code from remote sites
which will allow the execution of arbitrary code on the server
running cacti.
CAN-2005-2148
Stefan Esser discovered that the update for the abovely mentioned
vulnerabilities does not perform proper input validation to
protect against common attacks.
CAN-2005-2149
Stefan Esser discovered that the update for CAN-2005-1525 allows
remote attackers to modify session information to gain privileges
and disable the use of addslashes to protect against SQL
injection.
For the old stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 0.6.7-2.5.
For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 0.8.6c-7sarge2.
For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 0.8.6e-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your cacti package.
