Incorrect authorization in the User Messages dashboard widget in Checkmk <2.5.0p5 causes the message-fetching endpoints to return the dashboard creator's messages rather than the viewer's, allowing an attacker who knows a valid public dashboard share token to read the issuer's personal messages by sending requests to the underlying endpoint, even without a User Messages widget present.. EPSS estimates a 0.19% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
