Until a fix is applied, restrict access to the affected host_templates.php functionality and monitor for unusual database activity. Avoid exposing Cacti interfaces to untrusted networks.
Description
Cacti versions up to 1.2.29 contain a critical SQL injection vulnerability in the template function within host_templates.php via the graph_template parameter. This vulnerability is due to an incomplete fix of a previous issue (CVE-2024-54146). The flaw allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands, potentially leading to full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected system.
