Detail

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 11.04 - Ubuntu 10.10 - Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

Summary:

An attacker could modify or steal data if you were tricked into clicking on a special link to Nagios.

Software Description: - nagios3: A host/service/network monitoring and management system

Details:

Stefan Schurtz discovered than Nagios did not properly sanitize its input when processing certain requests, resulting in cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities. With cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, if a user were tricked into viewing server output during a crafted server request, a remote attacker could exploit this to modify the contents, or steal confidential data, within the same domain.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 11.04:
nagios3-cgi 3.2.3-1ubuntu1.2

Ubuntu 10.10:
nagios3-cgi 3.2.1-2ubuntu1.2

Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
nagios3-cgi 3.2.0-4ubuntu2.2

After a standard system update you need to restart Nagios to make all the necessary changes.

Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB)

Id Description
74122 Nagios config.cgi expand Parameter XSS

Nagios contains a flaw that allows a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the 'expand' parameter upon submission to the 'config.cgi' script. This may allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between their browser and the server.
72730 Icinga cgi-bin/config.cgi expand Parameter XSS

Icinga contains a flaw that allows a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the 'expand' parameter upon submission to the cgi-bin/config.cgi script. This may allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between their browser and the server.
71059 Nagios cgi-bin/statusmap.cgi layer Parameter XSS

Nagios contains a flaw that allows a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the 'layer' parameter upon submission to the cgi-bin/statusmap.cgi script. This may allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between their browser and the server.
