Zabbix 6.0.x < 6.0.42 / 7.0.x < 7.0.19 / 7.2.x < 7.2.13 / 7.4.x < 7.4.3 DoS (ZBX-27284)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 304680

Synopsis

A monitoring application installed on the remote host is affected by a denial of service vulnerability.

Description

The version of Zabbix Server installed on the remote host is affected by a vulnerability. An authenticated Zabbix user (including Guest) is able to cause disproportionate CPU load on the webserver by sending specially crafted parameters to /imgstore.php, leading to potential denial of service.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Zabbix version 6.0.42, 7.0.19, 7.2.13, 7.4.3 or later.
