{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-40079","details":"Cacti is an open source performance and fault management framework. Versions 1.2.30 and prior are vulnerable to Command Injection due to lack of sanitization in the escape_command() function. The escape_command() function at lib/rrd.php is a no-op: it returns $command unchanged. The command line built by rrdtool_function_graph() is passed through this function and then to shell_exec($full_commandline). The risk is in __rrd_execute() where text_format values from graph templates (which may contain host variable substitutions) reach shell_exec without adequate escaping. This issue has been addressed in version 1.2.31.","modified":"2026-09-14T17:03:10.666662484Z","published":"2026-06-25T00:17:47.570Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-40079"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-40079"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Debian:12","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/cacti?arch=source&distro=bookworm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.2.24+ds1-1","1.2.24+ds1-1+deb12u1","1.2.24+ds1-1+deb12u2","1.2.24+ds1-1+deb12u3","1.2.24+ds1-1+deb12u4","1.2.24+ds1-1+deb12u5","1.2.25+ds1-1","1.2.25+ds1-2","1.2.26+ds1-1","1.2.27+ds1-1","1.2.27+ds1-2","1.2.28+ds1-1","1.2.28+ds1-2","1.2.28+ds1-3","1.2.28+ds1-4","1.2.30+ds1-1","1.2.30+ds1-2","1.2.30+ds1-3","1.2.31+ds1-1","1.2.31+ds1-2","1.2.31+ds1-3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-40079.json"}},{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/cacti?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.2.30+ds1-1","1.2.30+ds1-2","1.2.30+ds1-3","1.2.31+ds1-1","1.2.31+ds1-2","1.2.31+ds1-3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-40079.json"}},{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Debian:14","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/cacti?arch=source&distro=forky"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.2.31+ds1-1"}]}],"versions":["1.2.30+ds1-1","1.2.30+ds1-2","1.2.30+ds1-3"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not yet assigned"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/debian-osv/debian-cve-osv/DEBIAN-CVE-2026-40079.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"}]}
