Descriptions
Nagios Core through 4.3.4 initially executes /usr/sbin/nagios as root but supports configuration options in which this file is owned by a non-root account (and similarly can have nagios.cfg owned by a non-root account), which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging access to this non-root account.
Nagios Core hasta la versión 4.3.4 ejecuta inicialmente /usr/sbin/nagios como root, pero es compatible con opciones de configuración en las cuales este archivo es propiedad de una cuenta sin root (y, de forma similar, puede poseer nagios.cfg sin root), lo que permite que usuarios locales obtengan privilegios aprovechando el acceso a esta cuenta sin root.
A vulnerability in Nagios allows local users to escalate privileges. Versions less than 4.3.4 are affected.
