Executive Summary

The vulnerability exists in the Zabbix Agent 2 Docker plugin, which does not properly sanitize the 'docker.container_info' parameters before forwarding them to the Docker daemon.

This improper sanitization allows an attacker who can invoke Agent 2 to inject malicious parameters via the Docker archive API.

As a result, the attacker can read arbitrary files from running Docker containers.

Impact Analysis

This vulnerability can impact you by allowing an attacker with access to Agent 2 to read any files inside running Docker containers.
