Description

Nagios XI versions prior to 2012R1.3 contain a SQL injection vulnerability in the legacy Core Configuration Manager (CCM) interface. Authenticated users could manipulate SQL queries by supplying crafted input to specific CCM parameters, potentially allowing access to configuration data stored in the application database. Successful exploitation could disclose or modify notification data and, in some cases, impact the application database more broadly.

• CWE-89Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection')The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.
