Ubuntu Security Notice USN-698-2 December 22, 2008
nagios3 vulnerabilities
CVE-2008-5027, CVE-2008-5028
===========================================================
A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:
Ubuntu 8.10
This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.
The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:
Ubuntu 8.10:
nagios3 3.0.2-1ubuntu1.1
After a standard system upgrade you need to restart Nagios to effect
the necessary changes.
Details follow:
It was discovered that Nagios was vulnerable to a Cross-site request forgery
(CSRF) vulnerability. If an authenticated nagios user were tricked into
clicking a link on a specially crafted web page, an attacker could trigger
commands to be processed by Nagios and execute arbitrary programs. This
update alters Nagios behaviour by disabling submission of CMD_CHANGE commands.
(CVE-2008-5028)
It was discovered that Nagios did not properly parse commands submitted using
the web interface. An authenticated user could use a custom form or a browser
addon to bypass security restrictions and submit unauthorized commands.
(CVE-2008-5027)
