This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of Cacti. Authentication is not required to exploit this vulnerability. The specific flaw exists within the poll_for_data function. The issue results from the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied string before using it to execute a system call. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the service account.
