Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in cmd.cgi in (1) Nagios 3.0.5 and (2) op5 Monitor before 4.0.1 allows remote attackers to send commands to the Nagios process, and trigger execution of arbitrary programs by this process, via unspecified HTTP requests.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw lets an attacker abuse a Nagios or op5 Monitor web user’s browser to submit command requests to cmd.cgi. The reported impact includes commands reaching the Nagios process and possible arbitrary program execution by that process, making legacy monitoring servers a business-critical review item. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Nagios 3.0.5 or op5 Monitor versions before 4.0.1, especially where the web interface is reachable by administrators or operators. Prioritize remediation for any internet-facing or broadly accessible monitoring UI. Monitoring servers often hold operational authority, so compromise could affect availability and incident response visibility. Mitigation focus: Upgrade op5 Monitor to 4.0.1 or later if applicable.; Replace Nagios 3.0.5 with a vendor-patched or distribution-supported release.; Review Gentoo, Ubuntu, op5, and Nagios advisory guidance for exact packages..
