This allows an attacker to permanently disable all monitoring checks.
MEDIUM 6.5EPSS 1.94%
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.94%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
In Nagios XI through 5.8.5, a read-only Nagios user (due to an incorrect permission check) is able to schedule downtime for any host/services. This allows an attacker to permanently disable all monitoring checks.
