AI Analysis

Impact

An authenticated attacker who only requires normal user privileges in LibreNMS 1.65 can run arbitrary shell commands by exploiting a command injection flaw in the /graph.php API endpoint. This flaw allows the attacker to gain full system compromise, enabling data exfiltration, tampering, or further lateral movement by executing shell commands with the privileges of the web server process.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects LibreNMS 1.65. The CVE data does not list other versions as affected; no other vendors or products are identified.

Risk and Exploitability

The EPSS score is < 1% and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, yet the high CVSS score of 8.8 indicates a severe risk. The vulnerability requires only normal authenticated access and allows arbitrary shell command execution over the network, providing full system compromise. The attack vector is remote, dependent on authorized credentials, making exploitation straightforward for anyone who can log in.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Update LibreNMS to version 1.65.1 or later, which contains the command injection fix.
  • If a newer version cannot be applied immediately, consider disabling the /graph.php endpoint or restricting it to trusted IP addresses via firewall or web server configuration.
  • Reduce the privileges of the web server user or harden the process isolation for the LibreNMS application to limit the consequences of an execution if the endpoint remains exposed.
