HTTP: Nagios Command Injection
This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Nagios. A successful attack can lead to arbitrary code execution.
Extended Description
Nagios is prone to a remote command-injection vulnerability because it fails to adequately sanitize user-supplied input data. Remote attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary shell commands with the privileges of the user running the application. NOTE: For an exploit to succeed, access to the WAP interface's ping feature must be allowed. Versions prior to Nagios 3.1.1 are vulnerable.
