Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Raxnet/Ian Berry Cacti. It has been classified as critical. Affected is an unknown code block of the file graph_view.php of the component GET Parameter Handler. The manipulation of the argument graph_start with an unknown input leads to a os command injection vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-78. The product constructs all or part of an OS command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended OS command when it is sent to a downstream component. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Cacti versions prior to 0.8.6-d contain a remote command execution vulnerability in the graph_view.php script. An authenticated user can inject arbitrary shell commands via the graph_start GET parameter, which is improperly handled during graph rendering. This flaw allows attackers to execute commands on the underlying operating system with the privileges of the web server process, potentially compromising system integrity.

The weakness was released by David Maciejak. The advisory is available at raw.githubusercontent.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2005-10004 since 08/28/2025. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. Technical details and a public exploit are known. This vulnerability is assigned to T1202 by the MITRE ATT&CK project.

The exploit is shared for download at exploit-db.com. It is declared as proof-of-concept. By approaching the search of inurl:graph_view.php it is possible to find vulnerable targets with Google Hacking. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 261300 (Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2005-10004), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment.
