Summary

CVE-2024-50704 is a critical-severity Code Injection (CWE-94) vulnerability in Uniguest Tripleplay. Its CVSS base score is 10.0 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Command and Scripting Interpreter (T1059); ranked in the top 42% of CVEs by exploit likelihood; it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.

The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to SA-11 (Developer Testing and Evaluation) and SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — 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-2024-50704 is an unauthenticated remote code execution vulnerability affecting Uniguest Tripleplay versions prior to 24.2.1. It is tracked under CWE-94 and carries a CVSS 3.1 base score of 10.0 reflecting network attack vector, low complexity, no required privileges or user interaction, and full impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability within a changed scope.

Remote attackers can exploit the flaw by sending a specially crafted HTTP POST request to an exposed Tripleplay instance, resulting in arbitrary code execution on the target system without any authentication.

Uniguest has published mitigation guidance in its CVE bulletins and a dedicated vulnerability summary document available at the referenced URLs.

The associated EPSS score rose from a low baseline to a peak of 0.0832 on 2026-04-18 before receding to the current value of 0.0449, indicating that exploitation interest emerged after public disclosure.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation finds code paths that accept and execute externally influenced strings.

Input validation directly stops untrusted data from being used to construct executable code without neutralization.

Least privilege limits the damage an injected code fragment can perform once executed.

Requiring documented secure development standards and tools enforces use of safe code-generation APIs and escaping.

PR.PS-06 mostly match
prevents

PR.PS-06's SDLC practices directly target injection flaws via secure coding and testing (mostly), yet as a single broad outcome it leaves many code-generation specifics unaddressed (partial).

PR.DS-10 none match
prevents

PR.DS-10 protects runtime data confidentiality/integrity but has no bearing on neutralizing externally influenced input during code generation, so neither direction shows any preventive effect.

prevents

Banning unapproved code samples and unauthenticated web services, combined with secure-coding standards and SAST, prevents the dynamic generation or inclusion of attacker-supplied code.
