  "title": "cacti: Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework",
  "description": "Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. Affected versions are subject to a Stored Cross-Site-Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability which allows an authenticated user to poison data stored in the _cacti_\u0027s database. These data will be viewed by administrative _cacti_ accounts and execute JavaScript code in the victim\u0027s browser at view-time. The script under \u0060host.php\u0060 is used to monitor and manage hosts in the _cacti_ app, hence displays useful information such as data queries and verbose logs. _CENSUS_ found that an adversary that is able to configure a data-query template with malicious code appended in the template path, in order to deploy a stored XSS attack against any user with the _General Administration\u003ESites/Devices/Data_ privileges. A user that possesses the _Template Editor\u003EData Queries_ permissions can configure the data query template path in _cacti_. Please note that such a user may be a low privileged user. This configuration occurs through \u0060http://\u003CHOST\u003E/cacti/data_queries.php\u0060 by editing an existing or adding a new data query template. If a template is linked to a device then the formatted template path will be rendered in the device\u0027s management page, when a _verbose data query_ is requested. This vulnerability has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to update should manually filter HTML output.",
