CVE-2024-21893
Overview
This vulnerability is a server-side request forgery (SSRF) flaw rooted in improper validation within the SAML component of Ivanti Connect Secure, Ivanti Policy Secure, and Ivanti Neurons for ZTA. The flaw arises from the SAML processing logic failing to restrict or sanitize URLs that the server fetches, enabling unauthorized internal resource access. The affected component specifically mishandles SAML authentication requests, allowing crafted input to trigger SSRF behavior.
Vulnerability Description
A server-side request forgery vulnerability in the SAML component of Ivanti Connect Secure (9.x, 22.x) and Ivanti Policy Secure (9.x, 22.x) and Ivanti Neurons for ZTA allows an attacker to access certain restricted resources without authentication.
Impact
An unauthenticated attacker can exploit this vulnerability to access internal network resources that are normally restricted, potentially exposing sensitive data or internal services. Because no authentication or user interaction is required, the attacker can perform reconnaissance or pivot within the network environment. This unauthorized access can lead to data breaches or facilitate further exploitation of internal systems, impacting confidentiality and network integrity.
Solution
Ivanti has published a security advisory detailing patches for Ivanti Connect Secure and Ivanti Policy Secure addressing this SSRF vulnerability. Users should upgrade affected products to the latest versions as specified in the vendor advisory available at https://forums.ivanti.com/s/article/CVE-2024-21888-Privilege-Escalation-for-Ivanti-Connect-Secure-and-Ivanti-Policy-Secure?language=en_US. The advisory includes version-specific patches and recommended configuration changes to mitigate the issue.
