CWE-88Published: October 8, 2024· Updated: Jun 17, 2026
Official Description
A vulnerability has been identified in SINEC Security Monitor (All versions < V4.9.0). The affected application does not properly validate user input to the ```ssmctl-client``` command.
This could allow an authenticated, lowly privileged remote attacker to execute arbitrary code with root privileges on the underlying OS.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2024-47553 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
Exploitation requires low privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A successful exploit results in complete confidentiality breach (data exposure), full integrity compromise (data manipulation), availability disruption (denial of service), with a CVSS base score of 9.9.
The vulnerability has a "Changed" scope, meaning successful exploitation can impact components beyond the vulnerable component itself — such as the host operating system or adjacent services.
