Hidden-property access via unencoded HTTP response headers
Published Nov 27, 2024 · Updated Nov 3, 2025
Injection in the Zabbix Server HttpRequest object allows remote authenticated users to access hidden properties via HTTP response headers. Header values from server responses are pushed into Duktape with duk_push_string without first replacing invalid UTF-8, creating internal strings that expose normally hidden object properties. A high-privilege user able to run server-side JavaScript can reach the flaw in 6.0.0 through 6.0.33, 6.4.0 through 6.4.18, and 7.0.0 through 7.0.3, compromising the script engine's isolation.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=6.0.0 <=6.0.33
- Affected versionversion=6.4.0 <=6.4.18
- Affected versionversion=7.0.0 <=7.0.3
