Cacti's sanitizesqlcolumn (lib/functions.php) sanitizes user-supplied ORDER BY column names using the regex . Because this allowlist retains letters, digits, underscore, parentheses, and dot (intended to support expressions like COUNT(id) and table.column), a payload such as passes through completely unmodified.

Cacti is an open source performance and fault management framework. Versions 1.2.30 and prior have missing sessionregenerateid() after login, leading to Session Fixation. sessionregenerateid() is NOT called after successful login. The login flow at authlogin.php:203-207 directly sets $SESSION[SESSUSERID] without rotating the session ID. The session cookie configuration is otherwise good (httponly=true, samesite=Strict, secure=true for HTTPS at include/global.php:513-537), but these do not prevent session fixation via same-site vectors. This issue has been fixed in version 1.2.31.

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/dataqueries.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.

Users unable to upgrade should manually escape HTML output.

Cacti provides an operational monitoring and fault management framework. Prior to version 1.2.27, there is a file inclusion issue in the lib/plugin.php file. Combined with SQL injection vulnerabilities, remote code execution can be implemented. There is a file inclusion issue with the apipluginhook() function in the lib/plugin.php file, which reads the pluginhooks and pluginconfig tables in database. The read data is directly used to concatenate the file path which is used for file inclusion. Version 1.2.27 contains a patch for the issue.

Cacti provides an operational monitoring and fault management framework. Prior to version 1.2.27, a SQL injection vulnerability in automationgetnewgraphssql function of apiautomation.php allows authenticated users to exploit these SQL injection vulnerabilities to perform privilege escalation and remote code execution. In apiautomation.php line 856, the getrequestvar('filter') is being concatenated into the SQL statement without any sanitization. In apiautomation.php line 717, The filter of 'filter' is FILTERDEFAULT, which means there is no filter for it. Version 1.2.27 contains a patch for the issue.

Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. Affected versions are subject to a privilege escalation vulnerability. A low-privileged OS user with access to a Windows host where Cacti is installed can create arbitrary PHP files in a web document directory. The user can then execute the PHP files under the security context of SYSTEM. This allows an attacker to escalate privilege from a normal user account to SYSTEM. This issue has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

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 graphsnew.php, specifically within the hostnewgraphssave function. This issue has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.

Cacti provides an operational monitoring and fault management framework. Versions of Cacti prior to 1.2.27 contain a residual cross-site scripting vulnerability caused by an incomplete fix for CVE-2023-50250. raisemessagejavascript from lib/functions.php now uses purify.js to fix CVE-2023-50250 (among others). However, it still generates the code out of unescaped PHP variables $title and $header. If those variables contain single quotes, they can be used to inject JavaScript code. 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. Version 1.2.27 fixes this issue.

Cacti provides an operational monitoring and fault management framework. Versions of Cacti prior to 1.2.27 are vulnerable to stored cross-site scripting, a type of cross-site scripting where malicious scripts are permanently stored on a target server and served to users who access a particular page.
