A critical security vulnerability, identified as CVE-2024-22116, has been patched in Zabbix, a popular monitoring solution. The vulnerability allowed an administrator with restricted permissions to execute arbitrary code via the Ping script in the Monitoring Hosts section, potentially compromising the infrastructure.
The vulnerability, which had a CVSS score of 9.9, was discovered by justonezero, a security researcher who submitted the report through the HackerOne bug bounty platform. Zabbix has acknowledged and thanked justonezero for their contribution to the platform’s security.
“An administrator with restricted permissions can exploit the script execution functionality within the Monitoring Hosts section. The lack of default escaping for script parameters enabled this user ability to execute arbitrary code via the Ping script, thereby compromising infrastructure.” Zabbix reported.
The vulnerability affected versions 6.4.0 to 6.4.15 and 7.0.0alpha1 to 7.0.0rc2. A patch has been released in versions 6.4.16rc1 and 7.0.0rc3, which fixes the issue.
According to the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE), the vulnerability is classified as CWE-94, Improper Control of Generation of Code (‘Code Injection’). The Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC) identifies the vulnerability as CAPEC-253, Remote Code Inclusion.
Zabbix has confirmed that the vulnerability has been fixed and no workarounds are available. Users are advised to upgrade to the patched versions to ensure the security of their monitoring environment.
