Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2026R1.0.1 are vulnerable to local privilege escalation due to a combination of sudo misconfiguration and group-writable application directories. The 'www-data' user is a member of the 'nagios' group, which has write access to '/usr/local/nagioslogserver/scripts', while several scripts in this directory are owned by root and may be executed via sudo without a password. A local attacker running as 'www-data' can move one of these root-owned scripts to a backup name and create a replacement script with attacker-controlled content at the original path, then invoke it with sudo. This allows arbitrary commands to be executed with root privileges, providing full compromise of the underlying operating system.
Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2026R1.0.1 contain an authenticated command injection vulnerability in the experimental 'Natural Language Queries' feature. When this feature is configured, certain user-controlled settings—including model selection and connection parameters—are read from the global configuration and concatenated into a shell command that is executed via shell_exec() without proper input handling or command-line argument sanitation. An authenticated user with access to the 'Global Settings' page can supply crafted values in these fields to inject additional shell commands, resulting in arbitrary command execution as the 'www-data' user and compromise of the Log Server host.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3, under certain circumstances, disclose sensitive user account information (including API keys and hashed passwords) to authenticated users who should not have access to that data. Exposure of API keys or password hashes could lead to account compromise, abuse of API privileges, or offline cracking attempts. CVE-2024-13995 addresses a similar vulnerability with a potentially incomplete fix for the underlying problem in earlier versions.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability in which an authenticated administrator could leverage the Migrate Server feature to obtain root privileges on the underlying XI host. By abusing the migration workflow, an admin-level attacker could execute actions outside the intended security scope of the application, resulting in full control of the operating system.
Nagios XI versions prior to 5.8.7 using embedded Nagios Core are vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) via the Core UI’s Views URL handling (escape_string()). Insufficient validation or escaping of user-supplied input may allow an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary script in the context of a victim's browser.
Nagios XI versions prior to 5.4.0 are vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) via the jQuery Migrate library. Insufficient validation or escaping of user-supplied input may allow an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary script in the context of a victim's browser.
Nagios XI versions prior to < 2024R1.1 is vulnerable to a cross-site scripting (XSS) when a user visits the "missing page" (404) page after following a link from another website. The vulnerable component, page-missing.php, fails to properly validate or escape user-supplied input, allowing an attacker to craft a malicious link that, when visited by a victim, executes arbitrary JavaScript in the victim’s browser within the Nagios XI domain.
Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2024R1.3.2 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability in the account email-change workflow. A user could set their own email to an invalid value and, due to insufficient validation and authorization checks tied to email identity state, trigger inconsistent account state that granted elevated privileges or bypassed intended access controls.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R2 contain an improperly owned script, process_perfdata.pl, which is executed periodically as the nagios user but owned by www-data. Because the file was writable by www-data, an attacker with web server privileges could modify its contents, leading to arbitrary code execution as the nagios user when the script is next run. This improper ownership and permission configuration enables local privilege escalation.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2026R1 contain a remote code execution vulnerability in the Core Config Manager (CCM) Run Check command. Insufficient validation/escaping of parameters used to build backend command lines allows an authenticated administrator to inject shell metacharacters that are executed on the server. Successful exploitation results in arbitrary command execution with the privileges of the Nagios XI web application user and can be leveraged to gain control of the underlying host operating system.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R2 contain a command injection vulnerability in the WinRM plugin. Insufficient validation of user-supplied parameters allows an authenticated administrator to inject shell metacharacters that are incorporated into backend command invocations. Successful exploitation enables arbitrary command execution with the privileges of the Nagios XI web application user and can be leveraged to modify configuration, exfiltrate data, disrupt monitoring operations, or execute commands on the underlying host operating system.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.4.2 revealed API keys to users who were not authorized for API access when using Neptune themes. An authenticated user without API privileges could view another user's or their own API key value.
Nagios Network Analyzer versions prior to 2024R2.0.1 contain a vulnerability in the LDAP certificate management functionality whereby the certificate removal operation fails to apply adequate input sanitation. An authenticated administrator can trigger command execution on the underlying host in the context of the web application service, resulting in remote code execution with the service's privileges.
Nagios Network Analyzer versions prior to 2024R1 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the Source Groups page (percentile calculator menu). An attacker can supply a malicious payload which is stored by the application and later rendered in the context of other users. When a victim views the affected page the injected script executes in the victim's browser context.
Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2024R1.3.1 contain a code injection vulnerability where malformed dashboard ID values are not properly validated before being forwarded to an internal API. An attacker able to supply crafted dashboard ID values can cause the system to execute attacker-controlled data, leading to arbitrary code execution in the context of the Log Server process.
Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2024R2.0.3 contain an execution with unnecessary privileges vulnerability as it runs its embedded Logstash process as the root user. If an attacker is able to compromise the Logstash process - for example by exploiting an insecure plugin, pipeline configuration injection, or a vulnerability in input parsing - the attacker could execute code with root privileges, resulting in full system compromise. The Logstash service has been altered to run as the lower-privileged 'nagios' user to reduce this risk associated with a network-facing service that can accept untrusted input or load third-party components.
Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2024R2.0.3 contain an incorrect authorization vulnerability that allows non-administrator users to delete global dashboards. The application did not correctly enforce authorization checks for the global dashboard deletion workflow, enabling lower-privileged users to remove dashboards that affect other users or the overall monitoring UI.
In Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2024R2.0.3, when a user's configured default dashboard is deleted, the application does not reliably fall back to an empty, default dashboard. In some implementations this can result in an unexpected dashboard being presented as the user's default view. Depending on the product's dashboard sharing and access policies, this behavior may cause information exposure or unexpected privilege exposure.
Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2024R2.0.2 contain a vulnerability in the cluster manager component when requesting sensitive credentials from peer nodes over an unencrypted channel even when SSL/TLS is enabled in the product configuration. As a result, an attacker positioned on the network path can intercept credentials in transit. Captured credentials could allow the attacker to authenticate as a cluster node or service account, enabling further unauthorized access, lateral movement, or system compromise.
Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2024R2.0.2 contain a vulnerability in the AD/LDAP user import functionality as it fails to obfuscate the password field during import. As a result, the plaintext password supplied for imported accounts may be exposed in the user interface, logs, or other diagnostic output. This can leak sensitive credentials to administrators or anyone with access to import results.
Nagios Fusion versions prior to R2.1 contain a vulnerability due to the application not requiring re-authentication or session rotation when a user has enabled two-factor authentication (2FA). As a result, an adversary who has obtained a valid session could continue using the active session after the target user enabled 2FA, potentially preventing the legitimate user from locking the attacker out and enabling persistent account takeover.
Nagios Fusion versions prior to 2024R2.1 contain a brute-force bypass in the Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) implementation. The application did not properly enforce rate limiting or account lockout for repeated failed 2FA verification attempts, allowing a remote attacker to repeatedly try second-factor codes for a targeted account. By abusing the lack of enforcement, an attacker could eventually successfully authenticate to accounts protected by 2FA.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.4.2 configure some systemd unit files with permission sets that were too permissive. In particular, the nagios.service unit had executable permissions that were not required. Overly permissive permissions on service unit files can broaden local attack surface by enabling unintended execution behaviors or facilitating abuse of service operations when combined with other weaknesses.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.4.2 contain a remote code execution vulnerability in the Business Process Intelligence (BPI) component. Insufficient validation and sanitization of administrator-controlled BPI configuration parameters (notably bpi_logfile and bpi_configfile) allow an authenticated administrative user to cause the product to create or overwrite files within the webroot and subsequently edit them via the BPI configuration editor. When such files carry executable extensions and are served by the web application, arbitrary code may be executed in the context of the web application user. Successful exploitation results in arbitrary command execution with the privileges of the Nagios XI web application user and can be leveraged to gain further control of the underlying host operating system.
Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2024R1.0.2 contain a local privilege escalation vulnerability that allows an attacker who could execute commands as the Apache web user (or the backend shell user) to escalate to root on the host.
Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2024R1 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability where an attacker-supplied username containing JavaScript is stored and later rendered without proper encoding/escaping in admin or user-facing pages. When an authenticated victim loads the affected page, the browser executes the injected script in the victim's context.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.0.1 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability in the System Profile component. The System Profile feature is an administrative diagnostic/configuration capability. Due to improper access controls and unsafe handling of exported/imported profile data and operations, an authenticated administrator could exploit this vulnerability to execute actions on the underlying XI host outside the application's security scope. Successful exploitation may allow an administrator to obtain root privileges on the XI server.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.3.2 contain a remote command execution vulnerability in the WinRM Configuration Wizard. Insufficient validation of user-supplied input allows an authenticated administrator to inject shell metacharacters that are incorporated into backend command invocations. Successful exploitation enables arbitrary command execution with the privileges of the Nagios XI web application user.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.2.2 contain a host header injection vulnerability. The application trusts the user-supplied HTTP Host header when constructing absolute URLs without sufficient validation. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can supply a crafted Host header to poison generated links or responses, which may facilitate phishing of credentials, account recovery link hijacking, and web cache poisoning.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.2 contain a command injection vulnerability in the Docker Wizard. Insufficient validation of user-supplied input in the wizard allows an authenticated administrator to inject shell metacharacters that are incorporated into backend command invocations. Successful exploitation enables arbitrary command execution with the privileges of the Nagios XI web application user.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.2 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability related to NagVis configuration handling (nagvis.conf). An authenticated user could manipulate NagVis configuration data or leverage insufficiently validated configuration settings to obtain elevated privileges on the Nagios XI system.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.2 are vulnerable to remote code execution (RCE) through its NRDP (Nagios Remote Data Processor) server plugins. Insufficient validation of inbound NRDP request parameters allows crafted input to reach command execution paths, enabling attackers to execute arbitrary commands on the underlying host in the context of the web/Nagios service.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.4 contain a local file inclusion (LFI) vulnerability via its NagVis integration. An authenticated user can supply crafted path values that cause the server to include local files, potentially exposing sensitive information from the underlying host.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3 are vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) via the Executive Summary Report component. Insufficient validation or escaping of user-supplied input may allow an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary script in the context of a victim's browser.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3 are vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) via the Capacity Planning Report component. Insufficient validation or escaping of user-supplied input may allow an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary script in the context of a victim's browser.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3, under certain circumstances, disclose the server's Active Directory (AD) or LDAP authentication token to an authenticated user. Exposure of the server’s AD/LDAP token could allow domain-wide authentication misuse, escalation of privileges, or further compromise of network-integrated systems.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.3 did not invalidate all other active sessions for a user when that user's password was changed. As a result, any pre-existing sessions (including those potentially controlled by an attacker) remained valid after a credential update. This insufficient session expiration could allow continued unauthorized access to user data and actions even after a password change.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.2 may (confirmed in 2024R1.1 and 2024R1.1.1) disclose sensitive user account information (including API keys and hashed passwords) to authenticated users who should not have access to that data. Exposure of API keys or password hashes could lead to account compromise, abuse of API privileges, or offline cracking attempts.
Nagios XI versions prior to 2024R1.1.2 contain a missing authorization control when the 'Allow Insecure Logins' option is enabled. Under this configuration, any user can create valid login credentials for other users without proper authorization. This can lead to unauthorized account creation, privilege escalation, or full compromise of the Nagios XI web interface depending on the target account.
Nagios XI versions prior to < 2024R1.1.2 are vulnerable to a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) via the login page when accessed with older web browsers. Insufficient validation or escaping of user-supplied input reflected by the login page can allow an attacker to craft a malicious link that, when visited by a victim, executes arbitrary JavaScript in the victim’s browser within the Nagios XI origin. The issue is observable under legacy browser behaviors; modern browsers may mitigate some vectors.

Nagios Core before 4.3.3 creates a nagios.lock PID file after dropping privileges to a non-root account, which might allow local users to kill arbitrary processes by leveraging access to this non-root account for nagios.lock modification before a root script executes a "kill `cat /pathname/nagios.lock`" command.
The Fedora Nagios package uses "nagiosadmin" as the default password for the "nagiosadmin" administrator account, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain access by leveraging knowledge of the credentials.

status.cgi in Nagios 4.0 before 4.0 beta4 and 3.x before 3.5.1 does not properly restrict access to certain users that are a contact for a service, which allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information about hostnames via the servicegroup (1) overview, (2) summary, or (3) grid style in status.cgi. NOTE: this behavior is by design in most 3.x versions, but the upstream vendor "decided to change it for Nagios 4" and 3.5.1.
Off-by-one error in the process_cgivars function in contrib/daemonchk.c in Nagios Core 3.5.1, 4.0.2, and earlier allows remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information from process memory or cause a denial of service (crash) via a long string in the last key value in the variable list, which triggers a heap-based buffer over-read.
Multiple off-by-one errors in Nagios Core 3.5.1, 4.0.2, and earlier, and Icinga before 1.8.5, 1.9 before 1.9.4, and 1.10 before 1.10.2 allow remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information from process memory or cause a denial of service (crash) via a long string in the last key value in the variable list to the process_cgivars function in (1) avail.c, (2) cmd.c, (3) config.c, (4) extinfo.c, (5) histogram.c, (6) notifications.c, (7) outages.c, (8) status.c, (9) statusmap.c, (10) summary.c, and (11) trends.c in cgi/, which triggers a heap-based buffer over-read.
