CVE-2025-39664
Insufficient escaping in the report scheduler within Checkmk <2.4.0p13, <2.3.0p38, <2.2.0p46 and 2.1.0 (EOL) allows authenticated attackers to define the storage location of report file pairs beyond their intended root directory.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.69%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
