Cacti is a web-based network graphing and reporting tool.

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

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
     Package             /  Vulnerable  /                   Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
  1  net-analyzer/cacti      < 0.8.7b                        >= 0.8.7b

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

The following inputs are not properly sanitized before being processed:

* "view_type" parameter in the file graph.php, "filter" parameter in
  the file graph_view.php, "action" and "login_username" parameters in
  the file index.php (CVE-2008-0783).

* "local_graph_id" parameter in the file graph.php (CVE-2008-0784).

* "graph_list" parameter in the file graph_view.php, "leaf_id" and
  "id" parameters in the file tree.php, "local_graph_id" in the file
  graph_xport.php (CVE-2008-0785).

Furthermore, CRLF injection attack are possible via unspecified vectors
(CVE-2008-0786).

Impact
======

A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities, leading to path
disclosure, Cross-Site Scripting attacks, SQL injection, and HTTP
response splitting.

Workaround
==========

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution
==========

All Cacti users should upgrade to the latest version:

    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-analyzer/cacti-0.8.7b"
