Vulnerabilities

Privilege escalation in mk_tsm agent plugin in Checkmk before 2.2.0p18, 2.1.0p38 and 2.0.0p39 allows local user to escalate privileges

Sensitive data exposure in Webconf in Tribe29 Checkmk Appliance before 1.6.8 allows local attacker to retrieve passwords via reading log files.

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.

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.

Denial of service in Webconf in Tribe29 Checkmk Appliance before 1.6.5.

Reflective Cross-Site-Scripting in Webconf in Tribe29 Checkmk Appliance before 1.6.4.

Sensitive data exposure in Webconf in Tribe29 Checkmk Appliance before 1.6.4 allows local attacker to retrieve passwords via reading log files.

Privilege escalation in Tribe29 Checkmk Appliance before 1.6.4 allows authenticated site users to escalate privileges via incorrectly set permissions.

Inappropriate error handling in Tribe29 Checkmk <= 2.1.0p25, <= 2.0.0p34, <= 2.2.0b3 (beta), and all versions of Checkmk 1.6.0 causes the symmetric encryption of agent data to fail silently and transmit the data in plaintext in certain configurations.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.
