Severity: critical (CVSS 9.8 v3.1)
Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
EPSS: 0.7% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days

Weakness: CWE-89

Description

Cacti is an open source performance and fault management framework. In versions 1.2.30 and prior, the rfilter request variable was concatenated into a RLIKE SQL clause without sanitization. The endpoint does not require authentication (graph viewing supports guest access via the configured guest user), so the SQLi was reachable pre-auth on installs with guest viewing enabled. This issue was fixed in version 1.2.31.

Affected products

cacti: before 1.2.31 — fixed in 1.2.31

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: cacti 1.2.31. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
