Package : cacti
Vulnerability : missing input sanitising
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2006-6799
Debian Bug : 404818
It was discovered that cacti, a frontend to rrdtool, performs insufficient

and the execution of arbitrary shell commands.
For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 0.8.6c-7sarge4.
For the upcoming stable distribution (etch) this problem has been
fixed in version 0.8.6i-3.

We recommend that you upgrade your cacti package.
