Overview

librenms/librenms is a fully featured network monitoring system that provides a wealth of features and device support.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Authorization as it allows users with the normal role/level privileges to interact with the plugin setting, which allows them to take action such as switching on/off any installed plugins which are supposedly accessible by the Administrator only.

PoC:

  1. log in as a normal user.

  2. Browse to http://{HOST}/plugin/settings

  3. We can switch on/off any installed plugins and interact with the setting such as creating and managing maps for the Weathermap plugin.
