    Version        : 1:5.0.47+dfsg-0+deb11u1
    CVE ID         : CVE-2025-27234

    zabbix a popular network monitoring solution was affected by a
    vulnerabilty.

    Zabbix Agent 2 smartctl plugin does not properly sanitize smart.disk.get
    parameters, allowing an attacker to inject unexpected arguments into
    the smartctl command. In Zabbix 5.0 this allows for remote code execution.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version
    1:5.0.47+dfsg-0+deb11u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your zabbix packages.

    For the detailed security status of zabbix please refer to
    its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/zabbix
