What is CVE-2025-61909?

Icinga 2, an open-source monitoring system, has a vulnerability that allows the daemon user to interact with the system's main process inappropriately. The issue occurs due to the safe-reload script used during systemctl reload operations and the logrotate configuration, which read the PID from a writable file. This flaw allows the Icinga user to send signals to processes that would normally require root permissions, potentially leading to unauthorized command execution and process manipulation. Corrective updates addressing this vulnerability are included in versions 2.15.1, 2.14.7, and 2.13.13.
