What is CVE-2020-6581?

Nagios NRPE version 3.2.1 is susceptible to command injection due to inadequate filtering mechanisms. Specifically, the handling of special characters such as newline characters can lead to unintended command execution. This flaw occurs when the application misinterprets input, allowing an attacker to potentially execute malicious commands on the server through crafted input. Proper sanitization and validation of user input are crucial to mitigate this type of vulnerability.
