Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Glances, an open-source system monitoring tool. A user with write access to the `glances.conf` configuration file can exploit a CQL (Cassandra Query Language) injection vulnerability in the Cassandra export module. This allows an attacker to manipulate configuration values, redirecting all monitoring data to an attacker-controlled Cassandra keyspace. The most important consequence is information disclosure, where sensitive monitoring data could be exposed.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-04-21 00:02:26 UTC
Glances is an open-source system cross-platform monitoring tool. Prior to version 4.5.4, the Cassandra export module (`glances/exports/glances_cassandra/__init__.py`) interpolates `keyspace`, `table`, and `replication_factor` configuration values directly into CQL statements without validation. A user with write access to `glances.conf` can redirect all monitoring data to an attacker-controlled Cassandra keyspace. Version 4.5.4 contains a fix.
