Summary

CVE-2024-50693 is a critical-severity Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key (CWE-639) vulnerability in Sungrowpower Isolarcloud. Its CVSS base score is 9.1 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 40th 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 AC-24 (Access Control Decisions) and AC-3 (Access Enforcement) — 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.

SunGrow iSolarCloud, prior to its remediation on October 31, 2024, contains a vulnerability classified as CVE-2024-50693, stemming from insecure direct object references (IDOR) in the userService API model (CWE-639). This flaw has a CVSS v3.1 base score of 9.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N), indicating critical severity due to its potential for high confidentiality and integrity impacts without requiring authentication or user interaction.

Remote, unauthenticated attackers can exploit this IDOR vulnerability over the network with low complexity to access or manipulate unauthorized user objects via manipulated API requests to the userService endpoint. Successful exploitation enables attackers to read sensitive user data or alter user information, compromising confidentiality and integrity across the affected iSolarCloud instances.

Sungrow has issued a security notice detailing the issue and remediation, available at https://en.sungrowpower.com/security-notice-detail-2/6120. Organizations should apply the October 31, 2024 patch or later to mitigate the vulnerability.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Enforcing approved authorizations on every access request structurally stops a user-controlled key from reaching another user's data.

Requiring explicit access-control decisions on each request blocks unauthorized key-driven access.

Least-privilege restrictions limit the scope of data reachable even if a key check is bypassed.

PR.AA-05 full match
prevents

Enforcing authorization policy and least privilege directly blocks user-controlled key tampering that bypasses access checks.

PR.IR-01 mostly match
prevents

Logical access controls prevent unauthorized data access that results from missing authorization checks on object references.

finds

Security testing can detect missing authorization checks but does not prevent the weakness in production.

prevents

Information access restriction explicitly enforces that users may only retrieve data they are authorized to see, directly addressing user-controlled key bypass.

prevents

Access control policy directly requires enforcement of authorization rules that prevent unauthorized access via manipulated keys.

prevents

Managing access rights includes ensuring users can only access their own records and not bypass authorization by altering identifiers.

mitigates

Privileged access rights control restricts what data each user may access, mitigating direct object reference attacks.

prevents

Secure development lifecycle includes authorization design but does not itself implement runtime access checks.
