CVE-2024-38865 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6/10 on the CVSS scale. Improper neutralization of livestatus command delimiters in a specific endpoint within RestAPI of Checkmk prior to 2.2.0p39, 2.3.0p25, and 2.1.0p51 (EOL) allows arbitrary livestatus command execution. Exploitation requires the attacker to have a contact group assigned to their user account and for an event to originate from a host with the same contact group or from an event generated with an unknown host.. EPSS estimates a 0.64% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
