[2.2.0] Checkmk Werk 16226 created: Privilege escalation in Agent

by Checkmk werks level 1

Title: Privilege escalation in Agent Class: security Compatible: compat Component: checks Date: 1701938773 Edition: cre Level: 2 Version: 2.2.0p17 In order to monitor livestatus from running sites on a host the Checkmk agent uses unixcat that is part of Checkmk. Since the binary is linked to libraries that are also part of Checkmk and may differ from the libraries of the operating system calling unixcat outside of the scope of a site could result to errors due to version mismatches in these libraries. To use the correct libraries in Checkmk 2.2.0p10 a fix was introduced to add the libraries from the site to the call in the agent. Since the lib folder within a site is writable by the site a rogue site could inject malicious libraries into the unixcat call from the agent that is executed as root leading to a privilege escalation. We thank Jan-Philipp Litza for reporting this issue. Affected Versions: * since 2.2.0p10 Vulnerability Management: We have rated the issue with a CVSS Score of 8.8 (High) with the following CVSS vector: <tt>CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H</tt>. We assigned CVE-2023-31210 to this vulnerability. Changes: This Werk changes the library path from the site to the version files, which are only root-writable.

[2.3.0] Checkmk Werk 15197 created: Improve Symmetric Agent Encryption on Linux

by Checkmk werks level 1

Title: Improve Symmetric Agent Encryption on Linux Class: feature Compatible: compat Component: checks Date: 1702055121 Edition: cre Level: 1 Version: 2.3.0b1 This Werk improves the agent's built-in symmetric encryption for Linux hosts. The new encryption scheme adds authentication of the encrypted data and improves the method used to derive cryptographic key material from the shared secret configured in the rule. To use the new encryption scheme, OpenSSL >= 1.0.0, better OpenSSL >= 1.1.1, must be available on the host. For testing and debugging purposes, a bash script to decrypt the agent's output can be found in the Checkmk repository under `doc/treasures/agent_legacy_encryption/decrypt.sh`. Older encryption schemes can still be decrypted by the Checkmk site. **Important disclaimers:** If the Agent Controller with TLS encryption is available, use that instead. The build-in symmetric encryption should only be used if TLS is not available. Moreover, there is no advantage in using both. Disable the symmetric encryption if you can use TLS. The security of this encryption scheme strongly depends on the security of the shared secret configured in the rule. Use a long, random secret.

by Checkmk werks level 1

Title: Improvement of "Schedule downtimes" command dialog Class: feature Compatible: compat Component: multisite Date: 1702297650 Edition: cre Level: 1 Version: 2.3.0b1 The command dialog for setting downtimes in views was reworked to improve usability. The different options can now be set from the top to the bottom and only one submit button is used to schedule a downtime. Preset durations can be set within the section "Duration". Own presets can be set via the "Edit presets" link. The start and end time can no optionally be set via a time- and datepicker. Advanced options are bundled within an own section.
