Livestatus injection in the prediction graph page in Checkmk <2.5.0b4, <2.4.0p26, and <2.3.0p47 allows an authenticated user to inject arbitrary Livestatus commands via a crafted service name parameter due to insufficient sanitization of the service description value.

Livestatus injection in the notification test mode in Checkmk <2.5.0b4 and <2.4.0p26 allows an authenticated user with access to the notification test page to inject arbitrary Livestatus commands via a crafted service description.

Livestatus injection in the monitoring quicksearch in Checkmk <2.5.0b4 allows an authenticated attacker to inject livestatus commands via the search query due to insufficient input sanitization in search filter plugins.

CVE-2025-39666 is a local privilege escalation vulnerability in Checkmk versions 2.2.0 (EOL), 2.3.0 before 2.3.0p46, 2.4.0 before 2.4.

Insufficient sanitization of dashboard dashlet title links 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 2.5.0 allows an attacker with dashboard creation privileges to perform stored cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks by tricking a victim into clicking a crafted dashlet title link on a shared dashboard.

Insufficient permission validation on multiple REST API Quick Setup endpoints in Checkmk 2.5.0 (beta) before version 2.5.0b2 and 2.4.0 before version 2.4.0p25 allows low-privileged users to perform unauthorized actions or obtain sensitive information

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 (XSS) in Checkmk 2.5.0 (beta) before 2.5.0b2 allows authenticated users with permission to create hosts or services to execute arbitrary JavaScript in the browsers of other users performing searches in the Unified Search feature.

CVE-2025-64998 is a high-severity vulnerability in Checkmk versions prior to 2.4.0p23, 2.3.0p45, and 2.2.0 that allows a remote site administrator with config sync enabled to hijack sessions on the central site by forging session cookies. This occurs due to exposure of the session signing secret, which is insufficiently protected. Exploitation requires high privileges on a remote site and involves partial user interaction. The vulnerability impacts confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the central site sessions.

Improper permission enforcement in Checkmk versions 2.4.0 before 2.4.0p23, 2.3.0 before 2.3.0p43, and 2.2.0 (EOL) allows unauthenticated users to enumerate existing hosts by observing different HTTP response codes in deploy_agent endpoint, which could lead to information disclosure.

Improper permission enforcement in Checkmk versions 2.4.0 before 2.4.0p23, 2.3.0 before 2.3.0p43, and 2.2.0 (EOL) allows authenticated users to enumerate existing hosts by observing different HTTP response codes in agent-receiver/register_existing endpoint, which could lead to information disclosure.

A logic error in the remove_password() function in Checkmk GmbH's Checkmk versions <2.4.0p23, <2.3.0p43, and 2.2.0 (EOL) allows a low-privileged user to cause data loss.

Improper neutralization of input in Checkmk versions 2.4.0 before 2.4.0p22, and 2.3.0 before 2.3.0p43 allows an attacker that can manipulate a host's check output to inject malicious JavaScript into the Synthetic Monitoring HTML logs, which can then be accessed via a crafted phishing link.

Improper permission enforcement in Checkmk versions 2.4.0 before 2.4.0p21, 2.3.0 before 2.3.0p43, and 2.2.0 (EOL) allows users with the "Use WATO" permission to access the "Analyze configuration" page by directly navigating to its URL, bypassing the intended "Access analyze configuration" permission check. If these users also have the "Make changes, perform actions" permission, they can perform unauthorized actions such as disabling checks or acknowledging results.

CVE-2025-65000 is a low-severity vulnerability in Checkmk versions 2.3.0 and 2.4.0p18 and earlier, where SSH private keys for the 'Remote alert handlers (Linux)' rule were exposed in the HTML source of the rule page. This exposure could allow unauthorized users with some level of access to trigger predefined alert handlers on affected hosts. The vulnerability arises from improper removal of sensitive information before storage or transfer (CWE-212). Although the CVSS score is low (2.3), the exposure of private keys poses a confidentiality risk. No known exploits are currently reported in the wild.

Insufficient permission validation in Checkmk versions prior to 2.4.0p17 and 2.3.0p42 allow low-privileged users to view agent information via the REST API, which could lead to information disclosure.

Insufficient permission validation on multiple REST API endpoints in Checkmk 2.2.0, 2.3.0, and 2.4.0 before version 2.4.0p16 allows low-privileged users to perform unauthorized actions or obtain sensitive information

Insufficient permission validation in Checkmk 2.4.0 before version 2.4.0p16 allows low-privileged users to modify notification parameters via the REST API, which could lead to unauthorized actions or information disclosure.

In Checkmk versions prior to 2.4.0p16, 2.3.0p41, and all versions of 2.2.0 and older, the mk_inotify plugin creates world-readable and writable files, allowing any local user on the system to read the plugin's output and manipulate it, potentially leading to unauthorized access to or modification of monitoring data.

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Checkmk's distributed monitoring allows a compromised remote site to inject malicious HTML code into service outputs in the central site. Affecting Checkmk before 2.4.0p14, 2.3.0p39, 2.2.0 and 2.1.0 (eol).
