Ivanti Connect Secure, Policy Secure, and Neurons Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) Vulnerability

Added to KEV: 2024-01-31Federal patch deadline: 2024-02-02⚠ USED IN RANSOMWARE CAMPAIGNS

Required Action (CISA)

Apply mitigations per vendor instructions or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.

Risk Analysis

This server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in the SAML component of Ivanti Connect Secure, Policy Secure, and Neurons allows an unauthenticated attacker to access restricted resources. The very high EPSS score of 0.94319 indicates a significant likelihood of exploitation, requiring immediate attention.

This vulnerability is actively exploited in the wild and is part of CISA's KEV catalog. Its unauthenticated and remote exploitability makes it a critical threat.

Recommended Action

Apply the security updates provided by Ivanti for Connect Secure, Policy Secure, and Neurons. Implement network-level filtering to restrict access to the SAML component.

Generated by the CTIWATCH analysis pipeline from this CVE's metadata (CVSS, EPSS, KEV status, exploit intelligence). Verify against vendor advisories before acting.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2024-21893 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.

Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.

CISA has added CVE-2024-21893 to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, confirming active exploitation in the wild. U.S. federal agencies are required to patch this within the mandated timeframe, and all organizations should treat remediation as urgent.
