Exploitation Conditions

Requires an authenticated user with elevated/administrative privileges (PR:H) who can write to the Commands Connectors configuration modules of Centreon Infra Monitoring (Centreon Web) to store the malicious payload. Exploitation is further gated by required user interaction (UI:R): a second user must subsequently load the affected configuration page for the stored script to execute. Limiting factors that reduce real-world risk: the high-privilege barrier to plant the payload, the need for victim interaction, and that only specific affected version ranges (24.10.0-24.10.12, 24.04.0-24.04.17, 23.10.0-23.10.27) are vulnerable. No availability impact.

Impact

This is a genuinely low-priority, medium-severity issue rather than an urgent one, and the signals are consistent. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N, base 4.8) describes a stored XSS that requires a high-privilege authenticated account to plant the payload and a second user's interaction to trigger it, with only low confidentiality and integrity impact and no availability impact. EPSS reinforces this: 0.21% probability at the 10th percentile indicates very low expected real-world exploitation. The vulnerability is NOT on the CISA KEV list (no confirmed active exploitation) and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, so this is theoretical risk only. No signals conflict - the high-privilege prerequisite (PR:H), required user interaction (UI:R), and low EPSS all point the same direction. The main caveat is that the elevated-privilege requirement means the attacker is already a trusted administrator, so realistic impact is largely limited to privilege-escalation-adjacent or insider/compromised-admin scenarios; the scope change (S:C) reflects that injected script executes in other users' browser sessions.

Exploit ScenarioDerived

An attacker who already holds an elevated/administrative Centreon Web account injects a malicious script into the Commands Connectors configuration fields. When another authenticated user later views that configuration page, the stored payload executes in their browser session (UI:R), potentially stealing session data or performing actions as that user. No public exploit code is known, and the high-privilege prerequisite makes this most relevant to compromised-admin or insider scenarios.

AnalysisAIv1 – Oct 08, 2026

Stored cross-site scripting (XSS) in the Commands Connectors configuration modules of Centreon Web (Centreon Infra Monitoring) allows an authenticated user with elevated or administrative privileges to persist malicious script content that executes when another user later loads the affected configuration page. The issue affects three branches: 23.10.0 through 23.10.27, 24.04.0 through 24.04.17, and 24.10.0 through 24.10.12. No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV; EPSS is 0.21% (10th percentile), reflecting a low-priority, medium-severity issue rather than an urgent one, since exploitation is gated by a high-privilege account plus victim interaction.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patch: upgrade to Centreon Web 24.10.13, 24.04.18, or 23.10.28 depending on your release train, as documented in the vendor bulletin at https://thewatch.centreon.com/latest-security-bulletins-64/cve-2025-8430-centreon-web-all-versions-medium-severity-5118 and the release notes at https://github.com/centreon/centreon/releases. Because exploitation requires an authenticated high-privilege account plus a victim opening the affected configuration page, interim compensating controls should focus on privilege minimization and session hardening: audit and reduce the set of accounts with rights to edit Commands Connectors configuration, and apply strict least-privilege role assignments so that only trusted administrators can write to those modules (trade-off: may slow legitimate configuration workflows and requires ongoing review). Enforce a restrictive Content-Security-Policy on the Centreon web interface to reduce script execution impact, and consider network-level restrictions or a reverse proxy limiting the administration UI to trusted networks or VPN (trade-off: reduces convenience for remote administrators). Educate administrative users not to open unsolicited or untrusted configuration links, since the attack chain depends on user interaction. No vendor-supplied workaround was identified beyond upgrading to the patched versions.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The root cause is CWE-79, improper neutralization of user-supplied input during web page generation, in the Commands Connectors configuration modules of Centreon Web - a PHP/MySQL-based IT infrastructure monitoring platform. Because the payload is stored server-side and rendered back to other users on the configuration page, this is a persistent (stored) rather than reflected XSS. The CVSS 3.1 vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N confirms network reachability, high privileges required to plant the payload, mandatory user interaction for the payload to fire, and a changed scope that limits confidentiality and integrity impact to low with no availability impact. CPE data identifies the affected component as centreon:centreon_web, with three affected version ranges corresponding to the 23.10, 24.04, and 24.10 release trains. Attackers must already hold an elevated role capable of writing to the Commands Connectors configuration; the XSS then executes in the session context of a subsequent viewer of that configuration.
