Nagios XI before 5.11.4 contains an arbitrary file editing issue in the Graph Templates editor. According to the provided advisory context, an administrator using the Graph Editor/Graph Templates page could edit unintended files in the parent directory, including PHP files such as index.php, ajax.php, and zoom.php. The flaw stems from insufficient restriction of file paths accessible through the editor, allowing modification of files outside the intended template scope.
