What is CVE-2026-40083?

Cacti, an open-source performance and fault management framework, is susceptible to SQL injection due to improper handling of deserialized data in the managers.php file. Specifically, when the application unserializes user input without sufficient validation, it allows arbitrary string arrays to be executed within SQL commands. The vulnerability arises at line 756 where deserialized values are directly integrated into an SQL DELETE statement without sanitization, leading to potential unauthorized access and manipulation of the database. This issue is addressed in Cacti version 1.2.31.
