Title: ZABBIX 'node_process_command()' Remote Command Execution Vulnerability
Severity: CRITICAL
Description:
ZABBIX is an IT monitoring system available for multiple operating platforms.
ZABBIX is prone to a vulnerability that attackers can leverage to execute arbitrary commands. This issue affects the 'node_process_command()' function in the 'trapper/nodecommand.c' source code file, and occurs because the application fails to properly validate connections containing 'Command' data before executing user-specified shell commands.
Successful attacks can compromise the affected software and possibly the computer.
Versions prior to ZABBIX 1.6.8 are vulnerable.
Affected Products:
- RedHat Fedora 11
- RedHat Fedora 12
- ZABBIX ZABBIX 1.6.2
- ZABBIX ZABBIX 1.6.3
- ZABBIX ZABBIX 1.6.5
- ZABBIX ZABBIX 1.6.6
- ZABBIX ZABBIX 1.6.7
