CVE-2026-39938 is a critical vulnerability in Cacti affecting versions 1.2.30 and earlier. The issue is described as an unauthenticated local file inclusion (LFI) reachable via the graph_theme parameter. Supporting advisory context indicates an earlier mitigation based only on basename() was bypassable, and that the fix in 1.2.31 strengthened validation in cacti_validate_theme() using a filesystem allowlist. The advisory context also references rrdtool IPC serialization hardening and maps the issue to both CWE-22 and CWE-78, indicating the path traversal/LFI condition may be leveraged in a code-execution path involving graph image handling and OS command execution.
