Log Server

Nagios Log Server before 2024R1.3.2 allows authenticated users (with read-only API access) to stop the Elasticsearch service via a /nagioslogserver/index.php/api/system/stop?subsystem=elasticsearch call. The service stops even though "message": "Could not stop elasticsearch" is in the API response. This is GL:NLS#474.

Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2026R1.0.1 are vulnerable to local privilege escalation due to a combination of sudo misconfiguration and group-writable application directories. The 'www-data' user is a member of the 'nagios' group, which has write access to '/usr/local/nagioslogserver/scripts', while several scripts in this directory are owned by root and may be executed via sudo without a password. A local attacker running as 'www-data' can move one of these root-owned scripts to a backup name and create a replacement script with attacker-controlled content at the original path, then invoke it with sudo. This allows arbitrary commands to be executed with root privileges, providing full compromise of the underlying operating system.

Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2026R1.0.1 contain an authenticated command injection vulnerability in the experimental 'Natural Language Queries' feature. When this feature is configured, certain user-controlled settings—including model selection and connection parameters—are read from the global configuration and concatenated into a shell command that is executed via shell_exec() without proper input handling or command-line argument sanitation. An authenticated user with access to the 'Global Settings' page can supply crafted values in these fields to inject additional shell commands, resulting in arbitrary command execution as the 'www-data' user and compromise of the Log Server host.

Nagios Log Server versions prior to 2024R1.3.2 contain a privilege escalation vulnerability in the account email-change workflow. A user could set their own email to an invalid value and, due to insufficient validation and authorization checks tied to email identity state, trigger inconsistent account state that granted elevated privileges or bypassed intended access controls.
