Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in Cacti, a web interface for graphing of monitoring systems, leading to authentication bypass and cross-site scripting (XSS). An attacker may get access to unauthorized areas and impersonate other users, under certain conditions.

CVE-2018-10060

Cacti has XSS because it does not properly reject unintended characters, related to use of the sanitize_uri function in lib/functions.php.

CVE-2018-10061

Cacti has XSS because it makes certain htmlspecialchars calls without the ENT_QUOTES flag (these calls occur when the html_escape function in lib/html.php is not used).

CVE-2020-13230

Disabling a user account does not immediately invalidate any permissions granted to that account (e.g., permission to view logs).

CVE-2020-23226

Multiple Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities exist in multiple files.

CVE-2021-23225

Cacti allows authenticated users with User Management permissions to inject arbitrary web script or HTML in the “new_username” field during creation of a new user via “Copy” method at user_admin.php.

CVE-2022-0730

Under certain ldap conditions, Cacti authentication can be bypassed with certain credential types.

Additionally, follow-up fixes were included for CVE-2019-11025 (DLA-1757-1) and CVE-2020-7106 (DLA-2069-1).

For Debian 8 jessie, these problems have been fixed in version 0.8.8b+dfsg-8+deb8u10.

We recommend that you upgrade your cacti packages.
