Exploitation Probability (EPSS)

Low risk
0.31%

23th percentile - higher than 23% of all known CVEs

Summary

The Zabbix Agent 2 smartctl plugin does not properly sanitize smart.disk.get parameters, allowing an attacker to inject unexpected arguments into the smartctl command. In Zabbix 5.0 this allows for remote code execution.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can remotely execute arbitrary code on the host running Zabbix Agent 2, taking control of the system. This is a critical threat to confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Recommendation

Update Zabbix Agent 2 to a version that fixes the vulnerability, or disable the smartctl plugin if not needed. Restrict access to the agent to trusted networks.
