Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management
framework. In Cacti 1.2.24, users with console access can be redirected to
an arbitrary website after a change password performed via a specifically
crafted URL. The auth_changepassword.php
file accepts ref
as a URL
parameter and reflects it in the form used to perform the change password.
It’s value is used to perform a redirect via header
PHP function. A user
can be tricked in performing the change password operation, e.g., via a
phishing message, and then interacting with the malicious website where the
redirection has been performed, e.g., downloading malwares, providing
credentials, etc. This issue has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users
are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this
vulnerability.
