## Technical details

A Server-Side Template Injection (SSTI) vulnerability exists in the 'message_confirm' field of the Centreon centreon-open-tickets module. The root cause is the lack of sanitization for user-supplied input which is subsequently rendered by the Smarty template engine without an active security policy. An authenticated attacker with low privileges can exploit this via the network to achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE). This can lead to the disclosure of environment secrets and impact the availability of the monitoring product. Patches are available in versions 24.10.14, 25.10.9, and 26.05.1.
