Synopsis
========

An SQL injection vulnerability has been discovered in Cacti.

Background
==========

Cacti is a complete web-based frontend to rrdtool.

Affected packages
=================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package             /  Vulnerable  /                   Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1  net-analyzer/cacti      < 0.8.7a                    *>= 0.8.6j-r7
                                                             >= 0.8.7a

Description
===========

It has been reported that the "local_graph_id" variable used in the
file graph.php is not properly sanitized before being processed in an
SQL statement.

Impact
======

A remote attacker could send a specially crafted request to the
vulnerable host, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary SQL
code.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All Cacti users should upgrade to the latest version:
