Summary

CVE-2024-24759 is a critical-severity SSRF (CWE-918) vulnerability in Mindsdb Mindsdb. Its CVSS base score is 9.3 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked in the top 9% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog; a public proof-of-concept is referenced.

This vulnerability is AI-related — categorised as Enterprise AI Assistants; in the Other ATLAS/OWASP Terms risk domain.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-4 (Information Flow Enforcement) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Deeper analysis AI-assisted summary

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.

MindsDB is an open-source platform for building AI models from enterprise data. Prior to version 23.12.4.2, the software was vulnerable to a server-side request forgery flaw (CWE-918) that could be bypassed through DNS rebinding attacks, allowing an attacker to circumvent existing SSRF protections across the application and potentially trigger denial-of-service conditions. The issue received a CVSS 3.1 score of 9.3, reflecting network-accessible exploitation with low attack complexity and no required credentials.

An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit the weakness by sending crafted requests that leverage DNS rebinding to reach internal resources or services otherwise protected by the SSRF controls. Successful exploitation can result in disclosure of sensitive information from internal systems and limited availability impact through denial of service.

The official GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-4jcv-vp96-94xr and the corresponding patch commit confirm that upgrading to MindsDB 23.12.4.2 resolves the DNS rebinding bypass. The current EPSS score of 0.8079, with a recorded peak of 0.8279, indicates sustained exploitation interest following disclosure.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Information flow enforcement can restrict which destinations the server is allowed to contact on behalf of users.

Input validation directly stops untrusted URLs from being accepted and fetched without destination checks.

Boundary protection limits the network reach of server-initiated requests even if SSRF occurs.
