01

What, why and how

Ivanti Cloud Services Appliance (CSA) contains a SQL injection vulnerability in the admin web console in versions prior to 5.0.2, which can allow a remote attacker authenticated as administrator to run arbitrary SQL statements.

What

Ivanti Cloud Services Appliance (CSA) contains a SQL injection vulnerability in the admin web console in versions prior to 5.0.2, which can allow a remote attacker authenticated as administrator to run arbitrary SQL statements.

Why

Attacker-controlled data is not kept separate from SQL query syntax, allowing the intended database operation to be changed.

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 2024-10-09.

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 SQL Command ('SQL Injection') → cause the confidentiality, integrity or availability impact described by the vendor
Attack surface
Network
Privileges required
High: elevated access is required

Low: no specialised conditions are recorded
Security boundary
Unchanged: impact remains within the vulnerable component's security authority
Weakness
?CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness.
CWE-89

CWE-89: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection'). The product constructs all or part of an SQL command using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the intended SQL command when it is sent to a downstream component. Without sufficient removal or quoting of SQL syntax in user-controllable inputs, the generated SQL query can cause those inputs to be interpreted as SQL instead of ordinary user data.

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:N/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.CNoneConfidentiality impact: No direct loss is represented by this metric.IHighIntegrity impact: A successful attack can cause a major loss.AHighAvailability impact: A successful attack can cause a major loss.
Post-exploitation / living off the land
No specific living-off-the-land technique is confirmed in the structured sources. Monitor normal administration tools for activity inconsistent with the affected service's baseline.

Ivanti indique que les vulnérabilités CVE-2024-9379 et CVE-2024-9380 sont activement exploitées dans le cadre d'attaques ciblées, en combinaison avec la vulnérabilité CVE-2024-8963.

Official advisory
NCSC-NL · Dutch · NCSC-2024-0399Kwetsbaarheden verholpen in Ivanti Cloud Services Appliance

Een geauthenticeerde kwaadwillende die reeds admin rechten bezit kan de kwetsbaarheden misbruiken om op afstand code en SQL statements uit te voeren, of middels path traversal restricties te omzeilen. Ivanti geeft aan bij gebruikers van versie 4.6 met patch 518 en lager, beperkte exploitatie van CVE-2024-9379 en CVE-2024-9380 in combinatie met CVE-2024-8963 te hebben waargenomen. Kwetsbaarheid CVE-2024-8963 is in latere versies verholpen en Ivanti heeft geen exploitatie waargenomen bij gebruikers vanaf versie 5.0.
