11th percentile - higher than 11% of all known CVEs

Summary

SSH private keys of the "Remote alert handlers (Linux)" rule were exposed in the rule page's HTML source in Checkmk <= 2.4.0p18 and all versions of Checkmk 2.3.0. This potentially allowed unauthorized triggering of predefined alert handlers on hosts where the handler was deployed.

Risk Assessment

Exposure of SSH keys may allow an attacker to impersonate legitimate alert handlers, potentially leading to unauthorized actions on hosts.

Recommendation

Update Checkmk to a patched version and immediately rotate all exposed SSH keys.
