Checkmk Werk 13322: Limit executable php scripts to NagVis files

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 13322 Title: Limit executable php scripts to NagVis files Component: Site Management Level: 1 Class: Security fix Version: 2.1.0i1 Previously the web server was able to execute <tt>.php</tt> files from all locations that are callable by the user. With this change, we now limit the execution of php files to the paths we need in the default installation for NagVis. Please note: In case you intentionally installed php files in your site to access them through the site web server, you may now need to extend your sites web server configuration to make it work again as before. For example, if you installed one file to <tt>var/www/my_script.php</tt>, you can make it usable again with the following configuration <tt>etc/apache/conf.d/my_script.conf</tt>: C+: <Location "/[site_id]/my_script.php"> Options +ExecCGI </Location> C-:

Checkmk Werk 13321: NagVis: Updated to 1.9.29 (Fix possible deletion of arbitrary files)

by Lars Michelsen

ID: 13321 Title: NagVis: Updated to 1.9.29 (Fix possible deletion of arbitrary files) Component: Other Components Level: 1 Class: Security fix Version: 2.1.0i1 Fix possible deletion of arbitrary files (CVE-2021-33178). An authenticated user with enough permissions to access the NagVis. ManageBackgrounds endpoint, such as admin, can delete arbitrary files on the server limited by the rights of the Apache system user. In Checkmk, this is limited to files owned by the site user.

Checkmk Werk 13130: mk_oracle: Fix bakery crash on deactivated agent rule

by Andreas Umbreit

ID: 13130 Title: mk_oracle: Fix bakery crash on deactivated agent rule Component: agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 2.1.0i1 When configuring one or more "ORACLE databases" agent rules and deactivating it with by setting "Activation" to "Do not deploy ORACLE databases plugin", the agent bakery failed to bake agents. This is fixed now by moving the activation/deactivation to an entry of the ruleset. As a result, for every active agent configuration, at least one rule with specified "Activation" entry must exist to successfully bake agents.

Checkmk Werk 13475: No longer adapt service names to the agent package name

by Moritz Kiemer

ID: 13475 Title: No longer adapt service names to the agent package name Component: Other Components Level: 1 Class: New feature Version: 2.1.0i1 The configuration setting "Name of agent packages (Linux, UNIX)" no longer affects the service units names <b>included</b> in the package. This werk only affects users who have configured a non-standard package name for the Checkmk agent packages created by the agent bakery. The option was originally implemented to allow for different DEB or RPM packages to be distributed by a local package repository without conflicting. However, this parameter also changed the names of the created systemd, xinetd or inetd units. This will no longer be the case. While the previous behaviour <b>in theory</b> allowed you to deploy multiple agent versions on the same host, that was never supported and is highly discouraged. Trying to do so lead to inconsistent or downright wrong monitoring data in the past. With the introduction of the new component <tt>cmk-agent-ctl</tt> support for multiple agent versions would become even more error prone and expensive (both in development and in maintenance). By fixing the services name we no longer suggest that this would be feasable.
