1 technique across 1 tactic: Privilege Escalation

The technique list with ATT&CK links and the kill-chain view is part of the Basic plan and up.

Exploitation Conditions

Requires a valid authenticated Centreon account with low privileges (CVSS PR:L); the attacker then abuses the Users Configuration endpoint, which fails to verify that the requested user object belongs to the caller, allowing retrieval of other users' configuration data. Limiting factors: a working authenticated session is mandatory (no anonymous/unauthenticated path), impact is confined to confidentiality disclosure (no write/integrity or availability effect), and only the Users Configuration endpoint is implicated per the description. No special non-default configuration or user interaction is described as required.

Impact

This is a moderate-priority issue rather than an emergency. The provided CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N, base 6.5) indicates a network-reachable, low-complexity flaw that nonetheless requires an authenticated low-privileged account (PR:L) and yields only confidentiality impact (C:H, I:N, A:N) - consistent with a Broken Object Level Authorization / Missing Authorization (CWE-862) information-disclosure bug. No EPSS probability, CISA KEV listing, or SSVC automatability/technical-impact values were supplied in the input, so exploitation likelihood cannot be quantified from these sources; the only priority signal is the vuln.today Decision label 'this_month', which aligns with patch-this-cycle urgency rather than act_now/emergency. No public exploit or PoC reference is present in the input (the GitHub releases link is a vendor source page, not exploit code). Net: a genuine but bounded authenticated-user data-exposure risk - worth scheduled remediation, not a drop-everything event. Note a data-quality caveat: one reference URL is malformed ('https://thewatch.centreon.comundefined'), limiting independent verification of advisory details.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who already holds a valid low-privileged Centreon account logs into the web interface and sends requests to the Users Configuration endpoint, substituting object identifiers belonging to other users. Because the endpoint fails to enforce per-object authorization, it returns configuration data the attacker is not entitled to see, exposing other users' sensitive details. No public exploit code is identified in the provided data, and a valid authenticated session is required.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 29, 2026

Centreon's Users Configuration endpoint returns other users' configuration data to any authenticated account holding low privileges because object-level authorization is not enforced. A remote attacker with a valid Centreon login can read sensitive configuration details, producing high confidentiality impact with no integrity or availability effect (CVSS 6.5, PR:L). No public exploit identified at time of analysis; a vendor advisory and release references are provided.

RemediationAI

Upgrade Centreon to a release that resolves CVE-2025-12523 as identified in the vendor advisory (https://thewatch.centreon.com) and the release notes (https://github.com/centreon/centreon/releases); the supplied data does not give an exact fixed version number. No workaround is described in the available data, so applying the vendor fix is the complete remediation path.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The issue is a broken object level authorization flaw in Centreon's Users Configuration endpoint, mapped to CWE-862 (Missing Authorization). The endpoint accepts a request for a user object but does not verify that the authenticated caller is permitted to access that specific object, allowing disclosure of other users' configuration data. The CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N confirms a network-reachable, low-complexity issue requiring a low-privileged authenticated session and yielding only confidentiality impact. The CPE cpe:2.3:a:centreon:centreon:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* identifies Centreon as the affected product, with no version range specified in the provided data. The tag list includes 'Authentication Bypass', but the assessed vector (PR:L) and description indicate a post-authentication object-level authorization failure rather than an anonymous bypass; no race condition, user interaction, or non-default configuration is described.

Attack Technique

Authentication bypass attacks exploit flaws in the verification mechanisms that control access to systems and applications.

Information disclosure occurs when an application unintentionally exposes sensitive data that aids attackers in reconnaissance or directly compromises security.
