Description Murray McAllister 2014-07-01 06:44:48 UTC

Similar to the CVE-2014-4701 issue in the check_dhcp plug-in, the same flaw was found to affect check_icmp. A local attacker could obtain sensitive information by using this flaw to read parts of INI configuration files that belong to the root user.

This issue was fixed in version 2.0.2:
