{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2023-39366","details":"Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. Affected versions are subject to a Stored Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability allows an authenticated user to poison data stored in the _cacti_'s database. These data will be viewed by administrative _cacti_ accounts and execute JavaScript code in the victim's browser at view-time. The `data_sources.php` script displays the data source management information (e.g. data source path, polling configuration etc.) for different data visualizations of the _cacti_ app. CENSUS found that an adversary that is able to configure a malicious Device name, can deploy a stored XSS attack against any user of the same (or broader) privileges. A user that possesses the _General Administration\u003eSites/Devices/Data_ permissions can configure the device names in _cacti_. This configuration occurs through `http://\u003cHOST\u003e/cacti/host.php`, while the rendered malicious payload is exhibited at `http://\u003cHOST\u003e/cacti/data_sources.php`. This vulnerability has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to update should manually filter HTML output.","modified":"2025-10-24T05:02:13Z","published":"2023-09-05T21:15:00Z","upstream":["CVE-2023-39366"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2023-39366"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/Cacti/cacti/security/advisories/GHSA-rwhh-xxm6-vcrv"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-39366"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:14.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/cacti@0.8.8b+dfsg-5ubuntu0.2+esm2?arch=source&distro=esm-infra-legacy/trusty"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.8.8b+dfsg-3","0.8.8b+dfsg-5","0.8.8b+dfsg-5ubuntu0.1","0.8.8b+dfsg-5ubuntu0.2","0.8.8b+dfsg-5ubuntu0.2+esm1","0.8.8b+dfsg-5ubuntu0.2+esm2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"0.8.8b+dfsg-5ubuntu0.2+esm2","binary_name":"cacti"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-39366.json"}},{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:16.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/cacti@0.8.8f+ds1-4ubuntu4.16.04.2+esm2?arch=source&distro=esm-apps/xenial"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["0.8.8f+ds1-2","0.8.8f+ds1-3","0.8.8f+ds1-4","0.8.8f+ds1-4ubuntu1","0.8.8f+ds1-4ubuntu2","0.8.8f+ds1-4ubuntu3","0.8.8f+ds1-4ubuntu4","0.8.8f+ds1-4ubuntu4.16.04","0.8.8f+ds1-4ubuntu4.16.04.1","0.8.8f+ds1-4ubuntu4.16.04.2","0.8.8f+ds1-4ubuntu4.16.04.2+esm1","0.8.8f+ds1-4ubuntu4.16.04.2+esm2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"0.8.8f+ds1-4ubuntu4.16.04.2+esm2","binary_name":"cacti"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-39366.json"}},{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:18.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/cacti@1.1.38+ds1-1ubuntu0.1~esm4?arch=source&distro=esm-apps/bionic"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.1.18+ds1-1","1.1.27+ds1-2","1.1.27+ds1-3","1.1.28+ds1-2","1.1.35+ds1-1","1.1.36+ds1-1","1.1.38+ds1-1","1.1.38+ds1-1ubuntu0.1~esm1","1.1.38+ds1-1ubuntu0.1~esm3","1.1.38+ds1-1ubuntu0.1~esm4"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"1.1.38+ds1-1ubuntu0.1~esm4","binary_name":"cacti"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-39366.json"}},{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:20.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/cacti@1.2.10+ds1-1ubuntu1.1+esm2?arch=source&distro=esm-apps/focal"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.2.4+ds1-2ubuntu3","1.2.9+ds1-1ubuntu1","1.2.9+ds1-1ubuntu2","1.2.10+ds1-1ubuntu1","1.2.10+ds1-1ubuntu1+esm1","1.2.10+ds1-1ubuntu1.1","1.2.10+ds1-1ubuntu1.1+esm1","1.2.10+ds1-1ubuntu1.1+esm2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"1.2.10+ds1-1ubuntu1.1+esm2","binary_name":"cacti"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-39366.json"}},{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/cacti@1.2.19+ds1-2ubuntu1.1+esm2?arch=source&distro=esm-apps/jammy"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.2.16+ds1-2ubuntu1","1.2.19+ds1-2ubuntu1","1.2.19+ds1-2ubuntu1+esm1","1.2.19+ds1-2ubuntu1.1","1.2.19+ds1-2ubuntu1.1+esm1","1.2.19+ds1-2ubuntu1.1+esm2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"1.2.19+ds1-2ubuntu1.1+esm2","binary_name":"cacti"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-39366.json"}},{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:24.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/cacti@1.2.26+ds1-1ubuntu0.1?arch=source&distro=noble"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["1.2.25+ds1-2","1.2.26+ds1-1","1.2.26+ds1-1ubuntu0.1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"1.2.26+ds1-1ubuntu0.1","binary_name":"cacti"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2023/UBUNTU-CVE-2023-39366.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.3","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N"},{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
