Detail
| It was discovered that the statuswml.cgi script of nagios, a monitoring and management system for hosts, services and networks, is prone to a command injection vulnerability. Input to the ping and traceroute parameters of the script is not properly validated which allows an attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands by passing a crafted value to these parameters. For the oldstable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 2.6-2+etch3 of nagios2. For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 3.0.6-4~lenny2 of nagios3. For the testing distribution (squeeze), this problem has been fixed in version 3.0.6-5 of nagios3. For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in version 3.0.6-5 of nagios3. We recommend that you upgrade your nagios2/nagios3 packages. |

|---|---|
| 55281 | Nagios statuswml.cgi Multiple Parameter Arbitrary Remote Shell Command Execution A command injection flaw exists in Nagios. The statuswml.cgi script fails to sanitize data passed to the 'ping' and 'traaceroute' commands resulting in shell command execution via metacharacters. With a specially crafted request, a remote attacker can cause arbitrary code execution resulting in a loss of integrity. |
