What is CVE-2024-49369?

CVE-2024-49369 is a critical vulnerability in Debian Debian Linux, published on 12 Nov 2024. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.

Official description

Icinga is a monitoring system which checks the availability of network resources, notifies users of outages, and generates performance data for reporting. The TLS certificate validation in all Icinga 2 versions starting from 2.4.0 was flawed, allowing an attacker to impersonate both trusted cluster nodes as well as any API users that use TLS client certificates for authentication (ApiUser objects with the client_cn attribute set). This vulnerability has been fixed in v2.14.3, v2.13.10, v2.12.11, and v2.11.12.
