id: CVE-2021-25297

info:
  name: Nagios 5.5.6-5.7.5 - Authenticated Remote Command Injection
  author: k0pak4
  severity: high
  description: |
    Nagios XI 5.5.6 through 5.7.5 is susceptible to authenticated remote command injection. There is improper sanitization of authenticated user-controlled input by a single HTTP request via the file /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/switch/switch.inc.php. This in turn can lead to remote code execution, by which an attacker can execute malware, obtain sensitive information, modify data, and/or gain full control over a compromised system without entering necessary credentials.
  impact: |
    Successful exploitation of this vulnerability allows an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the target system.
  remediation: |
    Upgrade Nagios to a version higher than 5.7.5 or apply the provided patch to mitigate the vulnerability.
