Description Cathy Hu 2023-09-06 08:12:34 UTC 
CVE-2023-31132

Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework.
Affected versions are subject to a privilege escalation vulnerability. A
low-privileged OS user with access to a Windows host where Cacti is installed
can create arbitrary PHP files in a web document directory. The user can then
execute the PHP files under the security context of SYSTEM. This allows an
attacker to escalate privilege from a normal user account to SYSTEM. This issue
has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no
known workarounds for this vulnerability.
