Actually, the CSRF issue is still in Nagios 3.0.5, but can no longer
trigger execution of arbitrary programs by the Nagios process. Its
impact is thereby reduced to disabling monitoring of the network and
similar actions that can validly be requested from the Nagios process
through the GUI.
The problem is not present in op5 Monitor 4.0.1. A tar-ball containing
the fix is available at http://www.op5.org/src/nagios-3.0.5p1.tar.gz.
Thanks.
