High Bug in Cacti for admin password

Post by suyashjain »

Their is a big bug in cacti , in which it asks to change the "admin" password without login.

type the following url in browser and replace x.x.x.x with your cacti ip .
http://x.x.x.x/auth_changepassword.php? ... ubmit=Save

It will change the admin password without any delay.

test it out immediately . I have tested it on latest cacti-0.8.7b version also.

Unable to reproduce on either Cacti 0.8.7 or Cacti 0.8.6.

Make sure that you are NOT logged in when you attempt to change the password.
