Title:	Debian LTS: Security Advisory for nagios3 (DLA-1615-1)
Summary:	Several issues were corrected in nagios3, a monitoring and management;system for hosts, services and networks.;;CVE-2018-18245;;Maximilian Boehner of usd AG found a cross-site scripting (XSS);vulnerability in Nagios Core. This vulnerability allows attackers;to place malicious JavaScript code into the web frontend through;manipulation of plugin output. In order to do this the attacker;needs to be able to manipulate the output returned by nagios;checks, e.g. by replacing a plugin on one of the monitored;endpoints. Execution of the payload then requires that an;authenticated user creates an alert summary report which contains;the corresponding output.;;CVE-2016-9566;;It was discovered that local users with access to an account in;the nagios group are able to gain root privileges via a symlink;attack on the debug log file.;;CVE-2014-1878;;An issue was corrected that allowed remote attackers to cause a;stack-based buffer overflow and subsequently a denial of service;(segmentation fault) via a long message to cmd.cgi.;;CVE-2013-7205, CVE-2013-7108;;A flaw was corrected in Nagios that could be exploited to cause a;denial-of-service. This vulnerability is induced due to an;off-by-one error within the process_cgivars() function, which can;be exploited to cause an out-of-bounds read by sending a;specially-crafted key value to the Nagios web UI.
Description:	Summary: Several issues were corrected in nagios3, a monitoring and management system for hosts, services and networks. CVE-2018-18245 Maximilian Boehner of usd AG found a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Nagios Core. This vulnerability allows attackers to place malicious JavaScript code into the web frontend through manipulation of plugin output. In order to do this the attacker needs to be able to manipulate the output returned by nagios checks, e.g. by replacing a plugin on one of the monitored endpoints. Execution of the payload then requires that an authenticated user creates an alert summary report which contains the corresponding output. CVE-2016-9566 It was discovered that local users with access to an account in the nagios group are able to gain root privileges via a symlink attack on the debug log file. CVE-2014-1878 An issue was corrected that allowed remote attackers to cause a stack-based buffer overflow and subsequently a denial of service (segmentation fault) via a long message to cmd.cgi. CVE-2013-7205, CVE-2013-7108 A flaw was corrected in Nagios that could be exploited to cause a denial-of-service. This vulnerability is induced due to an off-by-one error within the process_cgivars() function, which can be exploited to cause an out-of-bounds read by sending a specially-crafted key value to the Nagios web UI. Affected Software/OS: nagios3 on Debian Linux Solution: For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 3.5.1.dfsg-2+deb8u1. We recommend that you upgrade your nagios3 packages.
