As cyber threats continue to grow and evolve, so does the need for innovative solutions and reliable threat intelligence. Using millions of global network sensors, FortiGuard Labs monitors the worldwide attack surface and employs artificial intelligence (AI) to mine that data for new threats, ensuring you are prepared for what’s coming.
When a cybersecurity attack with large ramifications affects numerous organizations, FortiGuard Outbreak Alerts are here to help you understand what happened, learn the technical details of the attack, and how you can protect yourself now and in the future.
What is Ivanti Connect Secure and Policy Secure Attack?
Ivanti disclosed two zero-day vulnerabilities in their Ivanti Connect Secure (ICS) and Ivanti Policy Secure gateways. CVE-2023-46805 is a vulnerability found in the web component of Ivanti Connect Secure (9.x, 22.x) and Ivanti Policy Secure. This authentication bypass vulnerability allows a remote attacker to access restricted resources by bypassing control checks. While CVE-2024-21887 is a command injection vulnerability in the same web components. Read more
The CVE-2023-46805 and CVE-2024-21887 vulnerabilities are coupled together to perform exploitation on servers running on the Ivanti software. The attack does not require authentication and enables a threat actor to send malicious requests and execute arbitrary commands on the system for further exploitation. FortiGuard Labs has observed high exploitation attempts since the release of the signature to detect and block the Ivanti ICS Authentication Bypass vulnerability (CVE-2023-46805). FortiGuard Labs recommends administrators to follow vendor’s mitigation steps and apply patches as soon as they are provided.
