Description
Nagios Core before 4.5.12 contains a cross-site request forgery vulnerability in cmd.cgi where the CSRF protection mechanism passes validation when the NagFormId cookie is absent. Attackers can craft a malicious cross-site POST request to execute arbitrary Nagios commands as a currently authenticated user without their knowledge or consent.
