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

CVE-2024-43107 is an Improper Certificate Validation vulnerability (CWE-295) in the Gallagher Milestone Integration Plugin (MIP). The flaw permits unauthenticated messages, such as alarm events, to be sent to the plugin due to inadequate certificate checks. It affects Gallagher MIP Plugin versions 4.0 prior to 4.0.32, as well as all versions of 3.0 and prior.

The vulnerability has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 7.2 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:L), indicating it is exploitable remotely over the network by unauthenticated attackers with low complexity and no user interaction. Attackers can send unauthorized messages to the plugin, achieving low-level impacts on integrity and availability with a changed scope.

The Gallagher security advisory provides further details on mitigation, available at https://security.gallagher.com/en-NZ/Security-Advisories/CVE-2024-43107. Affected systems should be updated to Gallagher MIP Plugin v4.0.32 or later to address the issue.
