U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) adds Fortinet products and Ivanti CSA bugs to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) added the following vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog:
- CVE-2024-23113 (CVSS score 9.8) Fortinet Multiple Products Format String Vulnerability. A use of externally-controlled format string in Fortinet FortiOS allows attackers to execute unauthorized code or commands via specially crafted packets.
- CVE-2024-9379 (CVSS score 6.5) A SQL injection in the admin web console of Ivanti CSA before version 5.0.2. A remote authenticated attacker with admin privileges can exploit the flaw to run arbitrary SQL statements.
- CVE-2024-9380 (CVSS score 7.2) – an OS command injection vulnerability in the admin web console of Ivanti CSA before version 5.0.2. A remote authenticated attacker with admin privileges can exploit the vulnerability to achieve remote code execution.
Last week, Ivanti warned of three new security vulnerabilities (CVE-2024-9379, CVE-2024-9380, and CVE-2024-9381) in its Cloud Service Appliance (CSA) that are actively exploited in attacks in the wild.
Threat actors are chaining these three vulnerabilities with the CSA zero-day CVE-2024-8963 (CVSS score of 9.4) that the software firm addressed in September.
Threat actors could exploit these vulnerabilities to carry out SQL injection attacks, execute arbitrary code via command injection, and bypass security restrictions by abusing a path traversal weakness on vulnerable CSA gateways.
“We are aware of a limited number of customers running CSA 4.6 patch 518 and prior who have been exploited when CVE-2024-9379, CVE-2024-9380 or CVE-2024-9381 are chained with CVE-2024-8963.” reads the advisory published by Ivanti. “We have no evidence of any other vulnerabilities being exploited in the wild. These vulnerabilities do not impact any other Ivanti products or solutions.”
According to Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01: Reducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities, FCEB agencies have to address the identified vulnerabilities by the due date to protect their networks against attacks exploiting the flaws in the catalog.
Experts also recommend private organizations review the Catalog and address the vulnerabilities in their infrastructure.
CISA orders federal agencies to fix this vulnerability by October 30, 2024.
