CVE-2024-31459

Cacti provides an operational monitoring and fault management framework. Prior to version 1.2.27, there is a file inclusion issue in the lib/plugin.php file. Combined with SQL injection vulnerabilities, remote code execution can be implemented. There is a file inclusion issue with the api_plugin_hook() function in the lib/plugin.php file, which reads the plugin_hooks and plugin_config tables in database. The read data is directly used to concatenate the file path which is used for file inclusion. Version 1.2.27 contains a patch for the issue.
