MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Nagios XI version 5.4.13
Description:
A security issue was found that allows a registered user to use directory traversal to read local files. This can be achieved by using specific URIs, such as those beginning with "index.php?xiwindow=./" and "config/?xiwindow=../" substrings.
Recommendations:
For Nagios XI version 5.4.13, consider restricting access to the
index.php and config API endpoints until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the xiwindow parameter in these endpoints to minimize the risk of exploitation. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
