CVE-2024-22024: An XML external entity or XXE vulnerability in the SAML component of Ivanti Connect Secure (9.x, 22.x), Ivanti Policy Secure (9.x, 22.x) and…

HighCVSS 8.3 · v3.1—Proof of concept Fix available

Noroxi assessment

Priority: This week (action score 61/100)

  • A ready-made attack module is public (Nuclei); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 94.7% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 99.8% 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.
  • Fixed version: Ivant ICS 9.1R15.3; Ivanti ICS 22.1R6.1, 22.2R4.1, 22.3R1.1; Ivanti IPS 22.5R1.2, 9.1R17.3, 9.1R18.4.

Don’t wait for the next maintenance window. Upgrade to Ivant ICS 9.1R15.3; Ivanti ICS 22.1R6.1, 22.2R4.1, 22.3R1.1; Ivanti IPS 22.5R1.2, 9.1R17.3, 9.1R18.4 or later.
