Discussion

RaXnet Cacti Config.PHP Design Error Vulnerability

A design error affecting RaXnet Cacti can allow an attacker to prevent the 'session_start()' and 'addslashes()' functions from being called.

The affected 'session_start()' and 'addslashes()' calls are nested inside an 'if' control statement that depends on an attacker-controlled value. Reports indicate that this value may be controlled through a URI parameter when 'register_globals' is set.

A remote attacker may exploit these issues to gain administrative access to the affected software.
