NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream nagios3 package and not the nagios3 package as distributed by Ubuntu.

MagpieRSS, as used in the front-end component in Nagios Core before 4.2.2 might allow remote attackers to read or write to arbitrary files by spoofing a crafted response from the Nagios RSS feed server. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-4796.
