Cacti 1.2.12 SQL Injection / Remote Command Execution

Cacti 1.2.12 SQL Injection / Remote Command Execution
Posted Jun 2, 2021
Authored by h00die, Leonardo Paiva, Mayfly277 | Site metasploit.com

This Metasploit module exploits a SQL injection vulnerability in Cacti versions 1.2.12 and below. An admin can exploit the filter variable within color.php to pull arbitrary values as well as conduct stacked queries. With stacked queries, the path_php_binary value is changed within the settings table to a payload, and an update is called to execute the payload. After calling the payload, the value is reset.
