Deeper analysis

CVE-2025-5946 is an OS command injection vulnerability (CWE-78) in Centreon Infra Monitoring that affects the poller reload setup within the configuration modules. On the poller parameters page, insufficient neutralization of special elements allows an attacker to inject commands into the reload process. The flaw impacts versions 24.10.0 through 24.10.12, 24.04.0 through 24.04.17, and 23.10.0 through 23.10.27, and carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 7.2.

A user with high privileges can exploit the issue over the network by appending arbitrary instructions to the poller reload command, resulting in execution of operating system commands with the potential for full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability on the affected host.

Centreon has published fixes in the referenced GitHub releases and security bulletin, which address the affected branches by updating to 24.10.13, 24.04.18, and 23.10.28 or later. The current EPSS score of 0.3233 with a peak of 0.3379 does not indicate a material rise from a low baseline.
