Vulnerabilities (CVE)

Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.2 contain a missing authorization control when the 'Allow Insecure Logins' option is enabled. Under this configuration, any user can create valid login credentials for other users without proper authorization. This can lead to unauthorized account creation, privilege escalation, or full compromise of the Nagios XI web interface depending on the target account.

Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.2 may (confirmed in 2024R1.1 and 2024R1.1.1) disclose sensitive user account information (including API keys and hashed passwords) to authenticated users who should not have access to that data. Exposure of API keys or password hashes could lead to account compromise, abuse of API privileges, or offline cracking attempts.

Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3 did not invalidate all other active sessions for a user when that user's password was changed. As a result, any pre-existing sessions (including those potentially controlled by an attacker) remained valid after a credential update. This insufficient session expiration could allow continued unauthorized access to user data and actions even after a password change.

Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3, under certain circumstances, disclose the server's Active Directory (AD) or LDAP authentication token to an authenticated user. Exposure of the server’s AD/LDAP token could allow domain-wide authentication misuse, escalation of privileges, or further compromise of network-integrated systems.

Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3 are vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) via the Capacity Planning Report component. Insufficient validation or escaping of user-supplied input may allow an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary script in the context of a victim's browser.

Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3 are vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) via the Executive Summary Report component. Insufficient validation or escaping of user-supplied input may allow an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary script in the context of a victim's browser.

Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.2 are vulnerable to remote code execution (RCE) through its NRDP (Nagios Remote Data Processor) server plugins. Insufficient validation of inbound NRDP request parameters allows crafted input to reach command execution paths, enabling attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying host in the context of the web/Nagios service.

Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.2 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability related to NagVis configuration handling (nagvis.conf). An authenticated user could manipulate NagVis configuration data or leverage insufficiently validated configuration settings to obtain elevated privileges on the Nagios XI system.

Nagios XI versions prior to 2012R1.6 contain an authorization flaw in the Auto-Discovery functionality. Users with read-only roles could directly reach Auto-Discovery endpoints and pages that should require elevated permissions, exposing discovery results and allowing unintended access to discovery operations.

Nagios XI versions prior to 2012R1.6 contain a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the dashboard dashlet AJAX load functionality. Insufficient validation or escaping of user-supplied input may allow an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary script in the context of a victim's browser.

Nagios XI versions prior to 2012R1.3 contain a SQL injection vulnerability in the legacy Core Configuration Manager (CCM) interface.

Nagios XI versions prior to 2011R1.9 contain privilege escalation vulnerabilities in the scripts that install or update system crontab entries. Due to time-of-check/time-of-use race conditions and missing synchronization or final-path validation, a local low-privileged user could manipulate filesystem state during crontab installation to influence the files or commands executed with elevated privileges, resulting in execution with higher privileges.

Nagios XI versions prior to 5.2.4 contain a SQL injection vulnerability in the notification search functionality. User-supplied search parameters were incorporated into SQL statements without adequate parameterization or sanitation, allowing an authenticated user to manipulate database queries. Successful exploitation could disclose or modify notification data and, in some cases, impact the application database more broadly.
