CVE-2009-4112 describes a critical privilege escalation vulnerability in Cacti versions 0.8.7e and earlier. An authenticated administrator can inject arbitrary commands by manipulating the "Data Input Method" for the "Linux - Get Memory Usage" setting. This vulnerability carries a CVSS score of 9.0, indicating a severe risk with complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability possible due to its network-based, low-complexity attack vector. While no active exploitation or public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei) is noted, and community discussion is minimal, the high FAUCET Risk Score of 95/100 suggests significant potential impact if exploited.
