AI Analysis

Impact

A reflected cross‑site scripting flaw has been identified in the login field of the Thruk Monitoring web interface. Unauthenticated remote attackers can send specially crafted input through the login form, which is then echoed back in the response without proper neutralisation. This enables attackers to run arbitrary JavaScript in the victim's browser while they view the monitoring dashboard, potentially leading to session hijacking, credential theft, or defacement of the interface.

Affected Systems

All installations of Thruk Monitoring through version 2.46.3 are affected; the vulnerability has no vendor‑specific modifiers and applies universally to those releases.

Risk and Exploitability

The flaw can be triggered without authentication and only requires access to the monitoring interface’s login page, so the attack vector is remote over HTTP or HTTPS. Exploitation involves submitting a crafted request to the login endpoint and observing the reflected payload. The CVSS score of 6.1 indicates a moderate severity. The EPSS score of 0.00059 (reported as < 1%) shows a very low but non‑zero probability of exploitation in the wild, and the vulnerability is not listed in the CISA KEV catalog, implying that widespread exploitation is not yet documented.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade Thruk Monitoring to a version later than 2.46.3 that contains the fixed login page.
  • If an update cannot be applied immediately, limit access to the monitoring interface to trusted networks or require additional authentication (e.g., VPN or IP whitelisting) so that only authorized users can reach the login form.
  • Deploy a web application firewall or similar filtering that blocks script payloads before they reach the application.
