CVE-2024-38472: Apache HTTP Server on WIndows UNC SSRF

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Plan (action score 51/100)

  • 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: 69.4% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 99.3% 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: Apache Software Foundation Apache HTTP Server 2.4.60; Azure Linux 3.0 ARM 2.4.61-1; Azure Linux 3.0 x64 2.4.61-1.
  • Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Add it to your regular patch cycle. Upgrade to Apache Software Foundation Apache HTTP Server 2.4.60; Azure Linux 3.0 ARM 2.4.61-1; Azure Linux 3.0 x64 2.4.61-1 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

SSRF in Apache HTTP Server on Windows allows to potentially leak NTLM hashes to a malicious server via SSRF and malicious requests or content Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.60 which fixes this issue.  Note: Existing configurations that access UNC paths will have to configure new directive "UNCList" to allow access during request processing.
