Descriptions

Incomplete blacklist vulnerability in nrpe.c in Nagios Remote Plugin Executor (NRPE) 2.15 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a newline character in the -a option to libexec/check_nrpe. NOTE: this issue is disputed by multiple parties. It has been reported that the vendor allows newlines as "expected behavior." Also, this issue can only occur when the administrator enables the "dont_blame_nrpe" option in nrpe.conf despite the "HIGH security risk" warning within the comments

** DISPUTADA ** Vulnerabilidad de lista negra incompleta en nrpe.c en Nagios Remote Plugin Executor (NRPE) 2.15 y anteriores permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar comandos arbitrarios a través de un caracter de nueva línea en la opción -a hacia libexec/check_nrpe. NOTA: este problema está en disputa por partes múltiples. Se ha informado que el proveedor permite líneas nuevas como 'comportamiento esperado.' además, este problema solo puede ocurrir cuando el administrador habilita la opción 'dont_blame_nrpe' en nrpe.conf a pesar del aviso de 'riesgo para la seguridad alto' dentro de los comentarios.
