CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:HSummary
CVE-2024-4358 is a critical-severity Authentication Bypass by Spoofing (CWE-290) vulnerability in Telerik Report Server 2024. Its CVSS base score is 9.8 (Critical).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Adversary-in-the-Middle (T1557); ranked in the top 0.1% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; CISA has added it to the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to IA-2 (Identification and Authentication (Organizational Users)) and IA-3 (Device Identification and Authentication) — 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.
CVE-2024-4358 is an authentication bypass vulnerability, tracked under CWE-290, that affects Progress Telerik Report Server version 2024 Q1 (10.0.24.305) and earlier when deployed on IIS. The flaw permits an unauthenticated attacker to reach restricted functionality that should otherwise require valid credentials, and it received a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 reflecting network-accessible attack complexity that is low with no required privileges or user interaction.
An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit the weakness to obtain unauthorized access to the report server’s restricted areas, resulting in potential full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the affected instance.
Vendor documentation at docs.telerik.com and the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog both reference the issue and direct administrators to apply the remediation steps outlined in the Telerik knowledge-base article for CVE-2024-4358.
The vulnerability’s EPSS score stands at 0.9434 with a recorded peak of 0.9437, and its inclusion in CISA’s KEV catalog confirms observed real-world exploitation activity.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
Proper unique identification and authentication of users directly stops spoofing-based bypass of authentication.
Device identification and authentication before connection prevents spoofing of devices to bypass auth.
Authentication of non-organizational users blocks external spoofing attempts against the scheme.
Authenticator management ensures credentials cannot be easily spoofed or reused to bypass authentication.
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.
Protecting, conveying, and verifying identity assertions specifically prevents the spoofing that enables authentication bypass.
Requiring authentication of users/services/hardware directly counters spoofing-based bypass when strong methods are used.
Proofing and binding identities reduces spoofing opportunities during enrollment but does not address runtime authentication implementation flaws.
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.
Secure authentication control directly mitigates authentication bypass by spoofing.
Authentication information management directly addresses credential handling that prevents spoofing.
Security testing can detect spoofing vulnerabilities but does not prevent them by itself.
Access control policy reduces spoofing opportunities but does not prescribe authentication mechanisms.
Identity management supports unique identities but does not guarantee resistance to spoofing.
Access rights assignment limits exposure but does not enforce authentication strength.
