CVE-2024-13161: Absolute path traversal in Ivanti EPM before the 2024 January-2025 Security Update and 2022 SU6 January-2025 Security Update allows a remote
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Now (action score 87/100)
- CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild (Mar 10, 2025). Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Mar 31, 2025.
- A ready-made attack module is public (Nuclei); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 89.8% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 99.7% of all records.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.
- Severity is disputed: the assigning authority (CNA) scores it 9.8, NVD 7.5.
Patch today or shut off access. Until a fix is released, restrict access to the affected component and follow the vendor's advisory.

Actively exploited in the wild
CISA added this to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on Mar 10, 2025. That signals real attacks, not theory.
Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Mar 31, 2025.
