CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HSummary
CVE-2024-29375 is a critical-severity Improper Neutralization of Formula Elements in a CSV File (CWE-1236) vulnerability. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique User Execution (T1204); ranked in the top 29% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SI-15 (Information Output Filtering) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Synthesised by an AI model from the NVD description and linked references — a reading aid, not an authoritative source.
CVE-2024-29375 is a CSV injection vulnerability, tracked under CWE-1236, that affects Addactis IBNRS version 3.10.3.107. The flaw resides in the handling of user-supplied values in Project Description, Identifiers, Custom Triangle Name within Input Triangles, and Yield Curve Name fields when these are written to .ibnrs project files. An attacker can supply specially crafted input that is later interpreted as formulas when the file is opened in a spreadsheet application, resulting in a CVSS 3.1 score of 9.8.
A remote attacker with no authentication or user interaction required can supply a malicious .ibnrs file that triggers arbitrary code execution on a victim system that imports the file. Because the attack vector is network-reachable and the impact spans confidentiality, integrity, and availability, successful exploitation can lead to full compromise of the affected workstation.
The two reference URLs point to the same public GitHub repository containing proof-of-concept material; neither advisory nor vendor patch information is included in the provided references. The associated EPSS score has remained flat at 0.1170 with no material increase since disclosure.

Secure SDLC practices directly require output neutralization for untrusted CSV content to block formula injection.

Security testing in development can detect formula injection but does not itself implement the mitigation.
Secure SDLC mandates input validation and output encoding that directly prevents formula injection in CSV exports.
Application security requirements include rules for safe CSV generation and handling of untrusted data.
Secure architecture principles encourage safe data export design but do not specifically address CSV formula neutralization.
Secure coding standards explicitly require neutralization of special characters when writing CSV files.
