CVE Descriptions

statuswml.cgi in Nagios before 3.1.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in the (1) ping or (2) Traceroute parameters.

CVE Informations

Related Weaknesses

CWE-ID Weakness Name Source
CWE-78 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')
The product constructs all or part of an OS command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended OS command when it is sent to a downstream component.

EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/35464/info Nagios is prone to a remote command-injection vulnerability because it fails to adequately sanitize user-supplied input data. Remote attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary shell commands with the privileges of the user running the application. NOTE: For an exploit to succeed, access to the WAP interface's ping feature must be allowed. Versions prior to Nagios 3.1.1 are vulnerable. The following example URI is available: https://www.example.com/nagios/cgi-bin/statuswml.cgi?ping=173.45.235.65%3Becho+%24PATH
