CVE-2018-12520: An issue was discovered in ntopng 3.4 before 3.4.180617. The PRNG involved in the generation of session IDs is not seeded at program startup. This results in deterministic session IDs being allocated for active user sessions. An attacker with foreknowledge of the operating system and standard library in use by the host running the service and the username of the user whose session they're targeting can abuse the deterministic random number generation in order to hijack the user's session, thus escalating their access.
CVE-2017-7458: The NetworkInterface::getHost function in NetworkInterface.cpp in ntopng before 3.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via an empty field that should have contained a hostname or IP address.
CVE-2017-7459: ntopng before 3.0 allows HTTP Response Splitting.
CVE-2017-7416: ntopng before 3.0 allows XSS because GET and POST parameters are improperly validated.
CVE-2015-8368: ntopng (aka ntop) before 2.2 allows remote authenticated users to change the login context and gain privileges via the user cookie and username parameter to admin/password_reset.lua.
CVE-2017-5473: Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in ntopng through 2.4 allows remote attackers to hijack the authentication of arbitrary users, as demonstrated by admin/add_user.lua, admin/change_user_prefs.lua, admin/delete_user.lua, and admin/password_reset.lua.
