AI-suggested
- Apply official patches from Centreon as soon as they become available for affected versions (23.10.x, 24.04.x, 24.10.x).
- Restrict access to the poller parameters page strictly to trusted administrators using role-based access controls and network segmentation.
- Implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all high-privilege accounts to reduce risk of credential compromise.
- Monitor logs and command execution traces for unusual or unauthorized commands related to poller reload operations.
- Conduct regular audits of user privileges and remove unnecessary high-level access.
- Employ application-layer input validation and sanitization controls where possible to detect or block injection attempts.
- Consider deploying host-based intrusion detection systems (HIDS) to alert on suspicious OS command executions.
- Educate administrators about the risks of command injection and the importance of secure configuration management.
- Maintain up-to-date backups of monitoring configurations and system states to enable recovery in case of compromise.
- Coordinate with Centreon support and security advisories for updates and best practices.
Description
Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') vulnerability in Centreon Infra Monitoring (Poller reload setup in the configuration modules) allows OS Command Injection. On the poller parameters page, a user with high privilege is able to concatenate custom instructions into the poller reload command. This issue affects Infra Monitoring: from 24.10.0 before 24.10.13, from 24.04.0 before 24.04.18, from 23.10.0 before 23.10.28.
