Authenticated backend request injection via dynmap filter
Published May 27, 2025 · Updated Nov 3, 2025
Livestatus injection in NagVis before 1.9.47 allows remote authenticated users to inject monitoring-backend requests through dynmaps. The dynmap_get_objects function converts escaped newline tokens in dynmap_object_filter into line breaks before passing the filter to backend getObjects, permitting an additional Livestatus request to be framed. Low-privileged authenticated access is required, and public materials do not identify specific backend commands or resulting data changes.
