CVE-2024-29059

HIGH CISA KEV POC TTE Zero-Day Pub 22/03 Upd 21/10

Overview

This vulnerability is an information disclosure flaw rooted in improper handling of .NET Remoting ObjRefs within the Microsoft .NET Framework. The flaw arises from the framework's RemoteApplicationMetadata.rem endpoint, which improperly exposes serialized object references over HTTP. The affected component is the .NET Framework remoting infrastructure, specifically versions 3.5, 3.5.1, 4.7.2, and 4.8, which fail to adequately protect sensitive remote object metadata from unauthorized access.

Vulnerability Description

.NET Framework Information Disclosure Vulnerability

Impact

An attacker can retrieve leaked ObjRefs to remotely access and interact with application objects exposed via .NET Remoting, potentially extracting sensitive data without authentication or user interaction. This unauthorized access can lead to exposure of confidential application information and facilitate further attacks within the affected environment. The vulnerability enables attackers to bypass intended access controls on remote objects, increasing the risk of data breaches and unauthorized internal reconnaissance.

Solution

Microsoft has released security updates addressing this vulnerability in the .NET Framework versions 3.5, 3.5.1, 4.7.2, and 4.8. Administrators should apply the patches as detailed in the Microsoft Security Response Center advisory available at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2024-29059. No specific workarounds are recommended; timely application of the official updates is essential to remediate the issue.

Full Analysis

The vulnerability within the .NET Framework is characterized by an information disclosure flaw that can potentially expose sensitive data to unauthorized users. This issue arises from improper handling of certain requests, allowing attackers to gain access to confidential information that should be protected. The affected versions of the .NET Framework, including 2.0 through 4.8.1, are widely used in enterprise applications, making this vulnerability particularly concerning. The flaw can be exploited through various means, including web applications that rely on the framework for processing requests and responses, potentially leading to the leakage of sensitive user data or application logic.

Attack vectors for this vulnerability primarily involve scenarios where an attacker can manipulate input to the application, such as through crafted HTTP requests. By exploiting the flaw, an attacker could retrieve sensitive information stored in memory or improperly handled by the application, which may include user credentials, API keys, or other confidential data. Additionally, if the application is deployed in a multi-tenant environment, an attacker could potentially access data belonging to other users or clients, amplifying the risk of data breaches. The exploitation of this vulnerability does not require sophisticated skills, making it accessible to a broader range of attackers, including those with limited technical expertise.

The real-world impact of this vulnerability can be significant, particularly for organizations that rely on the .NET Framework for critical business applications. The exposure of sensitive information can lead to severe consequences, including reputational damage, loss of customer trust, and potential legal ramifications due to non-compliance with data protection regulations. Businesses may also face financial losses stemming from remediation efforts, incident response, and potential fines. Moreover, the vulnerability can serve as a stepping stone for further attacks, as attackers may leverage the disclosed information to gain deeper access to the organization's network or systems.

To effectively detect and mitigate this vulnerability, organizations should implement a multi-layered security approach. Regularly updating the .NET Framework to the latest version is crucial, as updates often include patches for known vulnerabilities. Additionally, employing web application firewalls (WAFs) can help filter out malicious requests and provide an additional layer of protection. Organizations should also conduct thorough security assessments and penetration testing to identify potential weaknesses in their applications. Implementing robust logging and monitoring practices can aid in the detection of unusual access patterns that may indicate exploitation attempts, allowing for timely incident response.

In conclusion, the information disclosure vulnerability within the .NET Framework poses a significant threat to organizations that utilize this technology. The potential for unauthorized access to sensitive data, coupled with the ease of exploitation, underscores the importance of proactive security measures. By staying informed about vulnerabilities, applying timely updates, and adopting comprehensive security strategies, organizations can better protect themselves against the risks associated with this and similar vulnerabilities.



CSURFACE threat intelligence has detected a slight increase in activity exploiting the CVE-2024-29059 vulnerability within the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8. While the overall exploitation trend remains stable, this modest uptick in detections suggests continued interest from threat actors in leveraging the information disclosure flaw. Notably, no new ransomware campaigns have been linked with this vulnerability, and high-confidence associations with known ransomware groups remain absent despite ongoing monitoring. The availability of additional proof-of-concept exploits on public platforms may contribute to sustained exploitation attempts by less sophisticated actors. This development underscores the persistence of the vulnerability as an attack vector, reinforcing the need for vigilance. Although the risk level remains high due to the vulnerability’s inherent severity and ease of exploitation, the current exploitation landscape does not indicate an immediate surge in widespread attacks. Defenders should remain attentive to evolving tactics but can consider the threat environment stable with a slight upward trend in activity.


Update 2 — July 06, 2026

CSURFACE threat intelligence has detected a modest increase in exploitation attempts targeting the CVE-2024-29059 vulnerability within Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8. While the overall exploitation trend remains relatively stable, our telemetry indicates a slight uptick in activity, suggesting continued interest from threat actors. Notably, the availability of new proof-of-concept exploits on public platforms is likely facilitating these attempts, lowering the technical barrier for less sophisticated adversaries. Despite this, the EPSS score shows a marginal decline, reflecting a subtle decrease in predicted exploit probability over the short term. Importantly, there is still no confirmed linkage between this vulnerability and active ransomware campaigns, including those associated with known groups such as BianLian and Black Basta. This nuanced shift underscores the persistence of CVE-2024-29059 as a viable attack vector, warranting ongoing monitoring. For defenders, the slight increase in exploitation attempts coupled with accessible exploit code means vigilance remains essential, though the threat environment does not currently indicate an imminent escalation in widespread attacks.
