RCE via OS command injection in Lilac-Reloaded for Nagios 2.0.8 autodiscovery (nmap_binary)
Lilac-Reloaded for Nagios 2.0.8 contains a remote code execution vulnerability in its autodiscovery feature. The autodiscovery endpoint accepts a user-controlled parameter, nmap_binary, which is insufficiently filtered/validated before being used in a way that allows injection of arbitrary OS commands. By sending a crafted POST request to the autodiscovery endpoint with malicious content in nmap_binary, an attacker can execute arbitrary commands on the underlying host (e.g., to spawn a reverse shell). This is an OS command injection issue (CWE-78).
