CVE-2023-39515

Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management
framework. Affected versions are subject to a Stored Cross-Site-Scripting
(XSS) Vulnerability allows an authenticated user to poison data stored in
the cacti’s database. These data will be viewed by administrative cacti
accounts and execute JavaScript code in the victim’s browser at view-time.
The script under data_debug.php displays data source related debugging
information such as data source paths, polling settings, meta-data on the
data source. CENSUS found that an adversary that is able to configure a
malicious data-source path, can deploy a stored XSS attack against any user
that has privileges related to viewing the data_debug.php information. A
user that possesses the General Administration>Sites/Devices/Data
permissions can configure the data source path in cacti. This
configuration occurs through http://<HOST>/cacti/data_sources.php. This
vulnerability has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to
upgrade. Users unable to update should manually filter HTML output.
