Exploitation Conditions

Exploitation requires an authenticated Centreon Web user with ELEVATED/administrative privileges (PR:H) who has access to the SNMP traps group configuration modules - the description explicitly scopes this to 'users with elevated privileges,' making privileged access the gating prerequisite. Because it is STORED XSS, a second limiting factor is required user interaction (UI:R): a victim user must subsequently load the page rendering the unneutralized input for the payload to fire. The impact is confined to Low confidentiality and Low integrity in the victim's browser session with no availability impact. These factors - a high-privilege injector plus a separate interacting victim - substantially narrow realistic exploitation to insider or post-compromise scenarios rather than opportunistic external attack. Affected deployments are Infra Monitoring 24.10.0-24.10.12, 24.04.0-24.04.17, and 23.10.0-23.10.27; versions 24.10.13, 24.04.18, and 23.10.28 and later are not affected.

Impact

This is a stored XSS (CWE-79) in Centreon Web's SNMP traps group configuration module, rated medium at CVSS 4.8. Multiple signals converge on LOW real-world priority rather than an urgent emergency. The CVSS vector (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N) shows the attacker must already hold HIGH privileges (PR:H) to inject the payload and a victim must then interact with the affected page (UI:R); impacts are limited to Low confidentiality and Low integrity with no availability impact, though the scope change (S:C) reflects that the injected script executes in the browser context of other users. EPSS corroborates low urgency at 0.26% (16th percentile), indicating very low probability of exploitation activity. There is no CISA KEV listing and no public exploit identified, so there is no evidence of active exploitation. No SSVC decision data was provided in the input. The signals are consistent, not conflicting: a high-privilege prerequisite plus required user interaction plus low technical impact plus low EPSS all point the same direction. The main caveat is that PR:H means the attacker is already a privileged/admin-level Centreon operator, so the primary realistic threat model is a malicious or compromised privileged insider escalating against other operators rather than an external unauthenticated attacker.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

A Centreon user holding elevated (administrative) privileges saves a malicious JavaScript payload into an SNMP trap group configuration field. When another operator or administrator later opens that configuration page in the Centreon Web UI, the stored script executes in their authenticated browser session, enabling session/data theft or UI actions in their context. No public exploit code was identified for this specific issue at the time of analysis.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 08, 2026

Stored cross-site scripting (CWE-79) in Centreon Infra Monitoring's SNMP traps group configuration module lets an authenticated user with elevated/administrative privileges persist malicious script that executes in the browser of another user who later views the affected configuration page. Only Centreon Web / Infra Monitoring releases 24.10.0 through 24.10.12, 24.04.0 through 24.04.17, and 23.10.0 through 23.10.27 are affected; versions 24.10.13, 24.04.18, and 23.10.28 and later contain the fix. The issue is rated medium (CVSS 4.8, vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N) and, because the injector must already hold high privileges and a separate victim must be induced to load the poisoned page, exploitation is realistically confined to insider or post-compromise scenarios; no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and EPSS is only 0.26% (16th percentile).

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patches are available: upgrade Centreon Infra Monitoring to 24.10.13, 24.04.18, or 23.10.28 (or later) depending on your branch, with release artifacts available from https://github.com/centreon/centreon/releases and details in the Centreon bulletin at https://thewatch.centreon.com/latest-security-bulletins-64/cve-2025-54892-centreon-web-all-versions-medium-severity-5121. Because exploitation requires an attacker who already holds elevated Centreon privileges, the most effective compensating control while patching is to restrict SNMP traps group configuration permissions to the smallest possible set of trusted administrators and audit those accounts, accepting the trade-off of tighter operational access; additionally, deploy a Content-Security-Policy that disallows inline script and untrusted script sources on the Centreon Web interface, though this can break legitimate UI functionality and must be tested. Administrators should also review SNMP traps group configuration records for injected markup and remove suspicious entries, and monitor for anomalous administrative account activity, since the prior compromise of a privileged account is the practical precondition for this bug to matter; note that no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, so opportunistic mass exploitation is not expected.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The flaw is a classic improper neutralization of user-supplied input during web page generation (CWE-79) in the Centreon Web front end, specifically within the modules that manage SNMP traps group configuration. Because the payload is stored server-side and rendered later rather than reflected immediately, it is a persistent (stored) XSS: an attacker with elevated privileges writes HTML/JavaScript into a configuration field that the application fails to encode or sanitize on output, and the script then executes in the security context of any user who opens the affected page. The CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N confirms a network-reachable attack path requiring high privileges to inject (PR:H) and victim interaction to trigger (UI:R); the scope-changed (S:C) component reflects that script execution crosses from the vulnerable page into the victim's browser session, while confidentiality and integrity impacts are Low and availability impact is None. The affected CPEs (cpe:2.3:a:centreon:centreon_web) match the Centreon Web component shipped as the monitoring UI of Centreon Infra Monitoring.
