Summary
CVE-2024-23116 is a high-severity SQL Injection (CWE-89) vulnerability in Centreon Centreon Web. Its CVSS base score is 7.2 (High).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Protocol or Service Impersonation (T1001.003); ranked in the top 1% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
Centreon installations are affected by CVE-2024-23116, an authenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the updateLCARelation function. The flaw arises from missing validation of user-supplied input before it is incorporated into SQL queries, allowing an attacker to influence query logic. Exploitation results in arbitrary code execution under the privileges of the service account.
Remote attackers who possess valid credentials can trigger the vulnerability over the network to achieve full code execution on the target system. The issue requires no user interaction and carries a CVSS 3.0 score of 7.2, reflecting high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
The vulnerability was originally reported as ZDI-CAN-22296 and published under ZDI-24-116. Its EPSS score has reached a peak of 0.8739 with a current value of 0.8603, indicating sustained exploitation interest following disclosure.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Developer testing and evaluation can discover SQLi flaws before deployment but does not stop their introduction.
Input validation directly stops untrusted data from reaching SQL query construction without neutralization.
Secure engineering principles require parameterized queries and input sanitization that structurally eliminate SQLi.
System monitoring can identify attempted SQLi exploitation via anomalous queries after the weakness exists.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Secure SDLC practices directly target injection flaws during coding and review so largely prevent CWE-89 introduction, yet the single broad outcome leaves residual risk from incomplete neutralization techniques or missed edge cases.
Training raises developer awareness of SQLi risks and can reduce introduction likelihood (partial) but removes none of the actual coding flaw's risk by itself since technical neutralization is still required.

A.5.6 only improves knowledge flow, awareness of threats/patches and access to specialist advice; it does not stop SQL injection from being exploitable in code that still contains the flaw.
