CVE-2024-13997

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3

Description Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3 have a flaw that allows an authenticated administrator to gain root privileges on the host system. This is achieved by exploiting the Migrate Server feature, which allows an attacker to execute actions beyond the intended security boundaries of the application, ultimately gaining full control of the operating system.

Recommendations Update Nagios XI to version 2024R1.1.3 or later.
