Loading vulnerability…
Cacti versions before 0.8.6-d contain an authenticated OS command-injection vulnerability in graph rendering. Insufficient validation of a user-controlled graph-start value permits shell metacharacters and arbitrary commands to reach an operating-system command invocation.

This repository contains a single Metasploit module (modules/exploits/unix/webapp/cacti_graphimage_exec.rb) that exploits a remote command execution vulnerability in Raxnet Cacti's graph_view.php script (CVE-2005-10004). The exploit targets Cacti installations prior to version 0.8.6-d on Unix platforms. The module works by first retrieving a valid image ID from the vulnerable script, then sending a specially crafted HTTP GET request that injects and executes arbitrary shell commands via the 'graph_start' parameter. The output of the executed command is returned in the HTTP response, delimited by markers for easy extraction. The module supports a variety of command payloads (generic, perl, ruby, python, telnet) and is fully integrated into the Metasploit framework, making it weaponized and easy to use. The only fingerprintable endpoint is the default vulnerable script path (/cacti/graph_view.php). The repository is structured as a single Ruby file following Metasploit conventions.
