{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2024-34340","details":"Cacti provides an operational monitoring and fault management framework. Prior to version 1.2.27, Cacti calls `compat_password_hash` when users set their password. `compat_password_hash` use `password_hash` if there is it, else use `md5`. When verifying password, it calls `compat_password_verify`. In `compat_password_verify`, `password_verify` is called if there is it, else use `md5`. `password_verify` and `password_hash` are supported on PHP \u003c 5.5.0, following PHP manual. The vulnerability is in `compat_password_verify`. Md5-hashed user input is compared with correct password in database by `$md5 == $hash`. It is a loose comparison, not `===`. It is a type juggling vulnerability. Version 1.2.27 contains a patch for the issue.","modified":"2026-01-30T02:40:43.456690Z","published":"2024-05-14T15:38:00Z","related":["USN-6969-1"],"upstream":["CVE-2024-34340"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2024-34340"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2024-34340"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://github.com/Cacti/cacti/security/advisories/GHSA-37x7-mfjv-mm7m"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-6969-1"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:18.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/cacti@1.1.38+ds1-1ubuntu0.1~esm3?arch=source&distro=esm-apps/bionic"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.1.38+ds1-1ubuntu0.1~esm3"}]}],"versions":["1.1.18+ds1-1","1.1.27+ds1-2","1.1.27+ds1-3","1.1.28+ds1-2","1.1.35+ds1-1","1.1.36+ds1-1","1.1.38+ds1-1","1.1.38+ds1-1ubuntu0.1~esm1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"availability":"Available with Ubuntu Pro: https://ubuntu.com/pro","binaries":[{"binary_name":"cacti","binary_version":"1.1.38+ds1-1ubuntu0.1~esm3"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2024/UBUNTU-CVE-2024-34340.json"}},{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:20.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/cacti@1.2.10+ds1-1ubuntu1.1?arch=source&distro=focal"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.2.10+ds1-1ubuntu1.1"}]}],"versions":["1.2.4+ds1-2ubuntu3","1.2.9+ds1-1ubuntu1","1.2.9+ds1-1ubuntu2","1.2.10+ds1-1ubuntu1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"availability":"No subscription required","binaries":[{"binary_name":"cacti","binary_version":"1.2.10+ds1-1ubuntu1.1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2024/UBUNTU-CVE-2024-34340.json"}},{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:22.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/cacti@1.2.19+ds1-2ubuntu1.1?arch=source&distro=jammy"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.2.19+ds1-2ubuntu1.1"}]}],"versions":["1.2.16+ds1-2ubuntu1","1.2.19+ds1-2ubuntu1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"availability":"No subscription required","binaries":[{"binary_name":"cacti","binary_version":"1.2.19+ds1-2ubuntu1.1"}]},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2024/UBUNTU-CVE-2024-34340.json"}},{"package":{"name":"cacti","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:24.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/cacti@1.2.26+ds1-1ubuntu0.1?arch=source&distro=noble"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.2.26+ds1-1ubuntu0.1"}]}],"versions":["1.2.25+ds1-2","1.2.26+ds1-1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"binaries":[{"binary_version":"1.2.26+ds1-1ubuntu0.1","binary_name":"cacti"}],"availability":"No subscription required"},"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-security-notices/blob/main/osv/cve/2024/UBUNTU-CVE-2024-34340.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.3","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N"},{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N"},{"type":"Ubuntu","score":"medium"}]}
