History injection

$ zabbix_get -s server.name -p 10051 -k '{"request":"history data","host":"PROXYNAME","data":[{"host":"monitored.host.name","key":"system.hostname","clock":1395680522,"ns":236229445,"value":"Hello, World"}]}'
{
        "response":"success",
        "info":"processed: 1; failed: 0; total: 1; seconds spent: 0.000045"}

Discovery injection

Setup:

  • discoveryconf.php
    • IP range: 0.0.0.0
    • Checks: Zabbix agent "system.hostname"
    • Device uniqueness criteria: Zabbix agent "system.hostname"
  • actionconf.php
    • Conditions: Discovery check = Discovery Test: Zabbix agent "system.hostname"
    • Operations: Add host

Mapping:

  • drule == discoveryconf.php druleid
  • dcheck == discoveryconf.php?druleid=... dcheckid
$ zabbix_get -s server.name -p 10051 -k '{"request":"discovery data","host":"PROXYNAME","data":[{"drule":58,"dcheck":112,"host":"monitored.host1.name","key":"system.hostname","clock":1395680522,"type":9,"ip":"192.168.1.10","port":10050,"dns":"monitored.host2.name"}],"clock":1395680522}'
$ zabbix_get -s server.name -p 10051 -k '{"request":"discovery data","host":"PROXYNAME","data":[{"drule":58,"dcheck":112,"host":"monitored.host2.name","key":"system.hostname","value":"monitored.host2.name","clock":1395680524,"type":9,"ip":"192.168.1.20","port":10050,"dns":"monitored.host2.name","status":0},{"clock":1395680524,"drule":58,"dcheck":null,"type":-1,"ip":"192.168.1.20","dns":"monitored.host2.name","status":0}],"clock":1395680524}'
