HTTP: Cacti Group Cacti snmp_escape_string Command Injection

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Cacti Group. A successful attack can lead to command injection and arbitrary code execution.

Extended Description

Cacti is an open source operational monitoring and fault management framework. In Cacti 1.2.24, under certain conditions, an authenticated privileged user, can use a malicious string in the SNMP options of a Device, performing command injection and obtaining remote code execution on the underlying server. The `lib/snmp.php` file has a set of functions, with similar behavior, that accept in input some variables and place them into an `exec` call without a proper escape or validation. This issue has been addressed in version 1.2.25. Users are advised to upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability.
