This includes the servicegroup overview, summary, and grid.Provided the user has access to view some services, they will be able to see all services (including those they should not see). Note that the user in question must have access to some services and must have access to Nagios to begin with.This has not yet been corrected upstream.References:http://www.mail-archive.com/nagios-users () lists sourceforge net/msg39749.htmlhttp://tracker.nagios.org/view.php?id=456 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=714171 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=978531Thanks.Please use CVE-2013-2214 for this issue.It appears there are may be some problems with this issue, potentially this may have been a bad configuration and not a source code based problem, however we haven't been able to confirm it yet. I've also not been able to contact upstream about this easily (no security@ address, if anyone know whom to forward this to, please let me know, thanks.I'm wondering why you fail to reproduce this issue. I posted some details regarding my setup at the Nagios Tracker: http://tracker.nagios.org/view.php?id=456Unfortunately Nagios upstream sometimes rather unresponsive. At least that's what I observed.Please let me know if you need any further details regarding the bug or advice on how to reproduce it.
To close the loop on this, the CVE should probably be rejected. According to upstream, this is done by design. One of our users noted it in our bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=978531#c11 He has a thorough explanation, but the bottom line is this seems to be by design, as noted in the changelog: http://www.nagios.org/projects/nagioscore/history/core-3x * Users can now see hostgroups and servicegroups that contain at least one host or service they are authorized for, instead of having to be authorized for them all (Ethan Galstad) I suspect this CVE should be rejected as this is done by design. --Vincent Danen / Red Hat Security Response Team
