Until a fix is available, restrict report management permissions to trusted users only to reduce risk. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply official patches once released.
Description
Tactical RMM versions 0.17.0 through 1.6.1 have an arbitrary file read vulnerability in the /reporting/templates/preview/ endpoint. This occurs because WeasyPrint processes file:// links in user-supplied templates and embeds the referenced files into generated PDFs. Users with report management permissions can exploit this to read sensitive files, including the Django SECRET_KEY, which is reused as the NATS password, enabling them to execute runscript commands on all managed agents.
