Administrator command execution via shell metacharacters

Published Oct 30, 2025 · Updated Oct 30, 2025

OS command injection in Nagios XI before 2024R1.2 allows remote authenticated users to execute commands via the Docker Wizard. The wizard incorporates user-supplied shell metacharacters into backend command invocations without sufficient validation. Access to an authenticated administrator account is required, and successful exploitation runs arbitrary commands with the Nagios XI web application user's privileges.
