Detailed vulnerability description
The vulnerability allows a local high-privileged attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in lib/rrd.php. A local user with 'admin' privileges can supply specially crafted data via the Admin command line interface (CLI) to escape from the restricted shell to an interactive shell and run arbitrary commands with root privileges.
