NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream cacti package and not the cacti package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:24.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

Cacti provides an operational monitoring and fault management framework. Prior to version 1.2.27, a SQL injection vulnerability in automation_get_new_graphs_sql function of api_automation.php allows authenticated users to exploit these SQL injection vulnerabilities to perform privilege escalation and remote code execution. In api_automation.php line 856, the get_request_var(&#39;filter&#39;) is being concatenated into the SQL statement without any sanitization. In api_automation.php line 717, The filter of &#39;filter&#39; is FILTER_DEFAULT, which means there is no filter for it. Version 1.2.27 contains a patch for the issue.
