Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
rrdtool version 1.4.7
Description
The issue is related to a format string vulnerability in the rrdtool module for Python, which is used in Zenoss. This vulnerability allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in a crash, by using format string specifiers in the
rrdtool.graph function.Recommendations
For rrdtool version 1.4.7, consider restricting access to the
rrdtool.graph function until a patch is available to prevent potential denial of service attacks. As a temporary workaround, avoid using format string specifiers in the rrdtool.graph function to minimize the risk of exploitation.Exploitability
