CVE-2025-58122: Insufficient permission validation when configuring notification parameters

MediumCVSS 5.3 · v4.0—No exploit Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 21/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.17% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. A low-privileged account is enough. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • Fixed version: Checkmk GmbH Checkmk 2.4.0p16.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Checkmk GmbH Checkmk 2.4.0p16 or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

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.
