Evidence used

  • CISA confirms exploitation in the wild.
  • EPSS is 88.53% for the current model date.

Compensating controls

  • Validate the affected product branch and deploy the verified fixed release.
  • Restrict the affected network interface to trusted sources where business-safe.
  • Increase monitoring for the attack path and post-exploitation behaviour described in the report.

Verification

  1. Confirm that the asset runs Ivanti Cloud Services Appliance and falls inside the recorded affected range.
  2. Verify the installed build against the product-specific fixed version after deployment.
  3. Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
  4. Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.
Mitigation target: Within 3 daysRemediation target: Within 90 days

This automated reassessment organises public evidence. It does not know asset exposure, business impact or control effectiveness and does not replace CVSS or a human risk decision.

01

What, why and how

Ivanti Cloud Services Appliance (CSA) contains an OS command injection vulnerability in the administrative console which can allow an authenticated attacker with application admin privileges to pass commands to the underlying OS.

What

Ivanti Cloud Services Appliance (CSA) contains an OS command injection vulnerability in the administrative console which can allow an authenticated attacker with application admin privileges to pass commands to the underlying OS.

Why

Untrusted input is incorporated into an operating-system command without safe parameter handling.

How

An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation with elevated privileges. If successful, the issue may cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
Confirmed in the wild

CISA added this CVE to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalogue on 2024-09-13.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

Likely attack path
a network path → Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection') → cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor

Network
Privileges required
High: elevated access is required

Weakness
?CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness.
CWE-78 ↗

CWE-78: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection'). The product constructs all or part of an OS command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended OS command when it is sent to a downstream component.

CVSS vector
?CVSS means Common Vulnerability Scoring System. The vector records the metric values used to calculate technical severity.
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Common Vulnerability Scoring System 3.1: the compact vector below is decoded into plain language.

AVNetworkAttack vector: The vulnerable component can be reached over a network.ACLowAttack complexity: No specialised conditions are required beyond attacker-controlled input.PRHighPrivileges required: The attacker needs elevated or administrative privileges.UINoneUser interaction: No action by another user is required.SUnchangedScope: The security impact remains within the vulnerable component's authority.CHighConfidentiality impact: A successful attack can cause a major loss.IHighIntegrity impact: A successful attack can cause a major loss.AHighAvailability impact: A successful attack can cause a major loss.

NCSC-NL · Dutch · NCSC-2024-0379Kwetsbaarheden verholpen in Ivanti Cloud Services Appliance

Een kwaadwillende kan de kwetsbaarheden misbruiken om via een path-traversal een command-injection uit te voeren, waardoor het systeem zonder voorafgaande authenticatie kan worden bediend en mogelijk overgenomen. Ivanti geeft aan informatie te hebben dat de kwetsbaarheden bij een kleine groep klanten is misbruikt. Ook het Amerikaanse CISA meldt via de Known Exploited Vulnerability Database dat de kwetsbaarheden gericht zijn misbruikt. Systemen die, tegen het advies van Ivanti in, geïmplementeerd zijn als Single-home systeem, ofwel waar eth0 zowel het interne als het externe netwerk bedient, lopen verhoogd risico tot misbruik. **CSA 4.6 is End-of-Life**. Gebruikers van CSA die inmiddels overgegaan zijn naar CSA 5 zijn NIET kwetsbaar. In tegenstelling tot het standaard beleid van Ivanti, heeft Ivanti alsnog gekozen om updates uit te brengen om deze kwetsbaarheden te verhelpen in het EOL v 4.6.
