See how tribe29 compares to other vendors in security performance
Expired sessions were not securely terminated in the RestAPI for Tribe29's Checkmk <= 2.1.0p10 and Checkmk <= 2.0.0p28 allowing an attacker to use expired session tokens when communicating with the RestAPI.
Local privilege escalation in Checkmk 2.2.0 (EOL), Checkmk 2.3.0 before 2.3.0p46, Checkmk 2.4.0 before 2.4.0p25, and Checkmk 2.5.0 (beta) before 2.5.0b3 allows a site user to escalate their privileges to root, by manipulating files in the site context that are processed when the omd administrative command is run by root.
PHP code injection in watolib auth.php and hosttags.php in Tribe29's Checkmk <= 2.1.0p10, Checkmk <= 2.0.0p27, and Checkmk <= 1.6.0p29 allows an attacker to inject and execute PHP code which will be executed upon request of the vulnerable component.
Privilege escalation in jarsignature agent plugin in Checkmk before 2.2.0p18, 2.1.0p38 and 2.0.0p39 allows local user to escalate privileges
Insufficient authentication flow in Checkmk before 2.2.0p18, 2.1.0p38 and 2.0.0p39 allows attacker to use locked credentials
Privilege escalation in mktsm agent plugin in Checkmk before 2.2.0p18, 2.1.0p38 and 2.0.0p39 allows local user to escalate privileges
The web management console of CheckMK Raw Edition (versions 1.5.0 to 1.6.0) allows a misconfiguration of the web-app Dokuwiki (installed by default), which allows embedded php code. As a result, remote code execution is achieved. Successful exploitation requires access to the web management interface, either with valid credentials or with a hijacked session by a user with the role of administrator.
DISPUTED The web management console of CheckMK Enterprise Edition (versions 1.5.0 to 2.0.0p9) does not properly sanitise the uploading of ".mkp" files, which are Extension Packages, making remote code execution possible. Successful exploitation requires access to the web management interface, either with valid credentials or with a hijacked session of a user with administrator role. NOTE: the vendor states that this is the intended behavior: admins are supposed to be able to execute code in this manner.
Uncontrolled Search Path Element in Checkmk Agent in Tribe29 Checkmk before 2.1.0p1, before 2.0.0p25 and before 1.6.0p29 on a Checkmk server allows the site user to escalate privileges via a manipulated unixcat executable
Privilege escalation in Tribe29 Checkmk Appliance before 1.6.4 allows authenticated site users to escalate privileges via incorrectly set permissions.
Improper neutralization of active check command arguments in Checkmk < 2.1.0p32, < 2.0.0p38, < 2.2.0p4 leads to arbitrary command execution for authenticated users.
Broad access controls could allow site users to directly interact with the system Apache installation when providing the reverse proxy configurations for Tribe29's Checkmk <= 2.1.0p6, Checkmk <= 2.0.0p27, and all versions of Checkmk 1.6.0 (EOL) allowing an attacker to perform remote code execution with root privileges on the underlying host.
Improper neutralization of livestatus command delimiters in the RestAPI in Checkmk < 2.0.0p36, < 2.1.0p28, and < 2.2.0b8 (beta) allows arbitrary livestatus command execution for authorized users.
Stored cross-site scripting (XSS) in Checkmk version 2.5.0 (beta) before 2.5.0b2 allows authenticated users with permission to create pending changes to inject malicious JavaScript into the Pending Changes sidebar, which will execute in the browsers of other users viewing the sidebar.
Stored cross-site scripting in the URL dashboard widget in Checkmk <2.5.0p5, <2.4.0p31, <2.3.0p48, and all 2.2.0 versions allows a user with dashboard editing permissions to store a URL with a dangerous URI scheme such as javascript: that executes scripts in other users' browsers when they view the dashboard.
In Checkmk before 1.6.0p29, 2.x before 2.0.0p25, and 2.1.x before 2.1.0b10, a site user can escalate to root by editing an OMD hook symlink.
Improper Input Validation of LDAP user IDs in Tribe29 Checkmk allows attackers that can control LDAP user IDs to manipulate files on the server. Checkmk <= 2.1.0p19, Checkmk <= 2.0.0p32, and all versions of Checkmk 1.6.0 (EOL) are affected.
Command injection in SMS notifications in Tribe29 Checkmk <= 2.1.0p10, Checkmk <= 2.0.0p27, and Checkmk <= 1.6.0p29 allows an attacker with User Management permissions, as well as LDAP administrators in certain scenarios, to perform arbitrary commands within the context of the application's local permissions.
Checkmk before 1.6.0p17 allows local users to obtain SYSTEM privileges via a Trojan horse shell script in the %PROGRAMDATA%\checkmk\agent\local directory.
A permission issue affects users that deployed the shipped version of the Checkmk Debian package. Packages created by the agent bakery (enterprise editions only) were not affected. Using the shipped version of the agents, the maintainer scripts located at /var/lib/dpkg/info/ will be owned by the user and the group with ID 1001. If such a user exists on the system, they can change the content of these files (which are then executed by root). This leads to a local privilege escalation on the monitored host. Version 1.6 through 1.6.9p29, version 2.0 through 2.0.0p26, version 2.1 through 2.1.0p3, and version 2.2.0i1 are affected.
Limited Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) in agent-receiver in Tribe29's Checkmk <= 2.1.0p11 allows an attacker to communicate with local network restricted endpoints by use of the host registration API.
Livestatus Query Language (LQL) injection in the AuthUser HTTP query header of Tribe29's Checkmk <= 2.1.0p11, Checkmk <= 2.0.0p28, and all versions of Checkmk 1.6.0 (EOL) allows an attacker to perform direct queries to the application's core from localhost.
Denial of service in Webconf in Tribe29 Checkmk Appliance before 1.6.5.
Exposure of session signing secret in Checkmk <2.4.0p23, <2.3.0p45 and 2.2.0 allows an administrator of a remote site with config sync enabled to hijack sessions on the central site by forging session cookies.
HTML Email Injection in Tribe29 Checkmk <=2.1.0p23; <=2.0.0p34, and all versions of Checkmk 1.6.0 allows an authenticated attacker to inject malicious HTML into Emails
Sensitive host secret disclosed in cmk-update-agent.log file in Tribe29's Checkmk <= 2.1.0p13, Checkmk <= 2.0.0p29, and all versions of Checkmk 1.6.0 (EOL) allows an attacker to gain access to the host secret through the unprotected agent updater log file.
Incorrect authorization in the User Messages dashboard widget in Checkmk <2.5.0p5 causes the message-fetching endpoints to return the dashboard creator's messages rather than the viewer's, allowing an attacker who knows a valid public dashboard share token to read the issuer's personal messages by sending requests to the underlying endpoint, even without a User Messages widget present.
Checkmk <=2.0.0p19 contains a Cross Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. While creating or editing a user attribute, the Help Text is subject to HTML injection, which can be triggered for editing a user.
CheckMK Raw Edition software (versions 1.5.0 to 1.6.0) does not sanitise the input of a web service parameter that is in an unauthenticated zone. This Reflected XSS allows an attacker to open a backdoor on the device with HTML content and interpreted by the browser (such as JavaScript or other client-side scripts) or to steal the session cookies of a user who has previously authenticated via a man in the middle. Successful exploitation requires access to the web service resource without authentication.
Reflected XSS in business intelligence in Checkmk <2.2.0p8, <2.1.0p32, <2.0.0p38, <=1.6.0p30.
