Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Cacti, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary commands. These issues are due to input validation errors in the "cmd.php" and "copy_cacti_user.php" scripts that do not validate the "_SERVER[argv]" variables before being used in SQL statements, which could be exploited by malicious users to conduct SQL and shell command injection attacks and execute abitrary commands on a server where "register_argc_argv" is enabled.
