CVE-2026-67436 — Linuxfabrik monitoring-plugins: SSRF and auth-token disclosure via unvalidated @odata.id link in redfish-* plugins
Linuxfabrik monitoring-plugins provides Python monitoring plugins for Icinga, Nagios, and related monitoring systems. In 6.0.0 and earlier, the redfish-* plugins built request URLs by concatenating an operator-supplied base URL with response-supplied @odata.id links, allowing a malicious or compromised BMC to redirect authenticated Redfish requests and disclose X-Auth-Token or HTTP Basic credentials.
Who exploits it and how urgent it is
A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.
How the score was calculated
- Technical severity (high)+6
The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).
Triage
Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.
CISA SSVC assessment CISA
Three decision points CISA publishes for the CVEs it assesses (SSVC 2.0.3). A stakeholder decision, not a severity score.
Remediation
Fixes and mitigations documented by the sources — linked to the original advisory.
No fix documented by the sources we poll. That does not mean none exists: check the vendor advisory.
First 24 hours
Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.
- Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Linuxfabrik Monitoring-plugins).
- The attack is network-based and needs no privileges: restrict exposure (ACLs, VPN, WAF) until patched.
- No fix documented in the sources: reduce exposure and monitor the vendor advisory.
- Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (input validation), errors and authentication anomalies.
