Ivanti Cloud Services Appliance (CSA) SQL Injection Vulnerability
CVE-2024-9379 is a security vulnerability in Ivanti Cloud Services Appliance (CSA), added to CISA KEV on October 9, 2024. Patch priority: Plan to patch.
What it is
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.
VulnCheck tracked exploitation 1 day before CISA's KEV listing. VulnCheck's broader catalog of in-the-wild exploitation evidence picked this up before it landed on CISA's formal list. Per-CVE fact about this entry; not a population claim about lead time in general.
Who's affected
Affects anyone using Ivanti VPN (Connect Secure or Pulse) or Ivanti endpoint management. The VPN is what remote workers use to reach internal systems; the endpoint management tool typically has admin reach into every laptop — exploitation in either is high-impact.
What to do
As Ivanti CSA 4.6.x has reached End-of-Life status, users are urged to remove CSA 4.6.x from service or upgrade to the 5.0.x line, or later, of supported solution.
