Description

Cacti versions from 1.2.27 up to but not including 1.2.31 contain an authenticated stored second-order SQL injection vulnerability in the automation tree rule item handler. This flaw allows a user with Automation realm privileges to inject arbitrary SQL fragments that are later executed when an administrator applies automation rules. The injected SQL results can be exfiltrated via the Cacti tree UI. The vulnerability is fixed in version 1.2.31.
