Fedora EPEL Update Notification
FEDORA-EPEL-2018-3f41541339
2018-03-30 13:12:24.193702
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : monitorix
Product : Fedora EPEL 7
Version : 3.10.1
Release : 1.el7
URL :
http://www.monitorix.org
Summary : A free, open source, lightweight system monitoring tool
Description :
Monitorix is a free, open source, lightweight system monitoring tool designed
to monitor as many services and system resources as possible. It has been
created to be used under production Linux/UNIX servers, but due to its
simplicity and small size may also be used on embedded devices as well.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Prior Monitorix versions are vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS), caused by
improper validation of user-supplied input by the monitorix.cgi file. A remote
attacker could exploit this vulnerability using some of the arguments provided
(graph= or when=) in a specially-crafted URL to execute script in a victim's Web
browser within the security context of the hosting Web site, once the URL is
clicked. An attacker could use this vulnerability to steal the victim's cookie-
based authentication credentials. I would like to thank Sebastian Gilon from
TestArmy for reporting that issue. The rest of bugs fixed are, as always,
reflected in the Changes file. All users still using older versions are advised
and encouraged to upgrade to this version, which resolves this security issue.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This update can be installed with the "yum" update programs. Use
su -c 'yum update monitorix' at the command line.
For more information, refer to "YUM", available at

All packages are signed with the Fedora EPEL GPG key. More details on the
GPG keys used by the Fedora Project can be found at
