CVE-2024-41757
Ibm Concert 1.0.0 … 1.0.1
Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:NCVSS and EPSS are reproduced from their sources (NVD, FIRST EPSS). Risk Priority is our own derived reading, not an NVD score.
Summary
CVE-2024-41757 is a medium-severity Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information (CWE-319) vulnerability in Ibm Concert. Its CVSS base score is 5.9 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Network Sniffing (T1040); ranked at the 18th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SC-13 (Cryptographic Protection) and SC-28 (Protection of Information at Rest) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
SC-13 mandates use of specific cryptography, structurally preventing unencrypted sensitive data.
SC-8 directly requires protecting confidentiality of transmitted information, which structurally eliminates cleartext transmission of sensitive data.
SC-28 requires cryptographic protection of information at rest, eliminating the storage half of the weakness.
Mitigating Controls (NIST CSF 2.0) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Encryption of data-in-transit directly prevents cleartext transmission while the control also addresses integrity and availability.
PR.DS-01 directly mandates encryption for data-at-rest and therefore prevents CWE-311 mostly for storage, yet the weakness also spans transmission and other contexts that this single at-rest control leaves unaddressed.
Mitigating Controls (ISO/IEC 27001:2022 Annex A) AI
Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→ISO cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Specifying encryption and other security technology for network services prevents transmission of sensitive information in cleartext over potentially untrusted channels.
Mandating cryptographic protection and stronger authentication on public networks stops the transmission of plaintext sensitive information.
Specifying communications-security requirements and secure remote-access methods (including encryption expectations) prevents the transmission of sensitive data in cleartext over home or public networks.
Armoured conduits, electromagnetic shielding and locked enclosures make passive eavesdropping on unencrypted traffic traversing the cables more difficult, mitigating exposure of sensitive data in transit.
Explicitly calling for protection of data in transit and at rest, plus secure encryption of communications, drives the implementation of encryption that prevents clear-text exposure of sensitive information.
