CISA and FBI Release Advisory on How Threat Actors Chained Vulnerabilities in Ivanti Cloud Service Applications

CISA, in partnership with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), released Threat Actors Chained Vulnerabilities in Ivanti Cloud Service Applications. This advisory was crafted in response to active exploitation of vulnerabilities—CVE-2024-8963, an administrative bypass vulnerability; CVE-2024-9379, a SQL injection vulnerability; and CVE-2024-8190 and CVE-2024-9380, remote code execution vulnerabilities—in Ivanti Cloud Service Appliances (CSA) in September 2024.

CISA, and the use of trusted third-party incident response data, found that threat actors chained the listed vulnerabilities to gain initial access, conduct remote code execution (RCE), obtain credentials, and implant webshells on victim networks.

CISA and FBI strongly encourage network administrators and defenders to upgrade to the latest supported version of Ivanti CSA and to hunt for malicious activity on their networks using the detection methods and indicators of compromise (IOCs) provided in the advisory. All members of the cybersecurity community are also encouraged to visit CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog to help better manage vulnerabilities and keep pace with threat activity.
