What to do
Solution: To remediate this vulnerability, apply the updates
Workaround: The vulnerability can be exploited only by authenticated users. If an immediate update is not possible, review user access rights to your Zabbix Frontend, be attentive to browser warnings and always check any links you can receive via email or other means of communication, which lead to the discoveryconf.php page of Zabbix Frontend and contain suspicious parameters with special symbols. If you have clicked on the suspicious link, do not fill out the opened form.
