Ivanti CSA Vulnerability Actively Exploited: OS Command Injection Vulnerability Requires Urgent Action - 16d

A critical vulnerability (CVE-2024-8190) in Ivanti’s Cloud Services Appliance (CSA) has been actively exploited by malicious actors. This vulnerability allows attackers to gain unauthorized access and control of affected systems via OS command injection. The flaw specifically impacts older versions of CSA, including 4.6 (all versions before patch 519). The use of older versions of products can cause a lot of problems, as attackers can utilize old exploits against vulnerable products and systems. The urgency of this situation highlights the need for organizations to update their CSA software to the latest patched version or, if they have versions older than CSA 5.0, to consider adopting a newer product which has been properly secured. CISA advises that affected users immediately upgrade to CSA version 5.0, or a newer version.
