CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

ntopng through 6.6 is vulnerable to Predictable Session Identifier which can lead to Session Hijacking. HTTP session identifiers in src/HTTPserver.cpp use weak time-seeded pseudo-randomness during session creation. As a result, fresh authenticated logins can receive deterministic or colliding session cookies under attacker-controlled timing.

ntopng is a web-based network traffic monitoring application. Prior to 6.7.260717, the vulnerability-scan endpoints scripts/lua/rest/v2/add/host/toscan.lua and scripts/lua/rest/v2/exec/host/schedulevulnerabilityscan.lua accept the scanports parameter without an administrator gate and pass it through validateSingleWord, which permits shell metacharacters. scripts/lua/modules/vulnerabilityscan/vsutils.lua then concatenates scanports into an nmap command in nmapscanhost and executes the command through ntop.execCmd or ntop.execCmdAsync and popen. Any authenticated non-admin user can execute operating-system commands as the ntopng process account when nmap is available. Because the endpoints accept GET requests while ntopng's CSRF validation applies to POST request bodies, an attacker can also trigger the command through a logged-in user's browser without possessing ntopng credentials. This issue is fixed in version 6.7.260717.

ntopng is a web-based network traffic monitoring application. Prior to 6.7.260717, POST /lua/rest/v2/edit/system/editblacklist.lua in scripts/lua/rest/v2/edit/system/editblacklist.lua lacks an administrator check and calls listsutils.editList for any authenticated user. The listname, listenabled, url, and listupdate parameters allow a non-admin user to redirect threat-intelligence downloads to attacker-controlled content, disable blocklists, or prevent scheduled updates. The changes are persisted through Redis and reloaded without a lower-level authorization guard, undermining the integrity and availability of ntopng's threat-intelligence monitoring. This issue is fixed in version 6.7.260717.

ntopng is a web-based network traffic monitoring application. In versions 6.7.0 through 6.7.260717, two REST v2 endpoints that manage ntopng's tag/badge feature — POST /lua/rest/v2/delete/tag/tag.lua and POST /lua/rest/v2/edit/tag/tag.lua — perform no authorization check at all. Any authenticated user, including a non-administrator ("unprivileged") account, can delete or rename any tag in the system, including tags created by an administrator. Version 6.7.260718 contains a fix.

ntopng before 6.7.260717 fails to perform authorization checks in the delete endpoints and recipients REST v2 handlers. Authenticated non-administrator users can issue POST requests to irreversibly delete all configured notification endpoints and recipients, silencing all alerts.
