The zabbix-agent2 package before 5.4.9-r1 for Alpine Linux sometimes allows privilege escalation to root because the design incorrectly expected that systemd would (in effect) determine part of the configuration.

Weakness

The product does not initialize a critical resource.

Affected Software

Name Vendor Start Version End Version
Zabbix-agent2 Zabbix * 5.4.9 (excluding)
