Summary

CVE-2024-51561 is a critical-severity Reliance on Untrusted Inputs in a Security Decision (CWE-807) vulnerability in 63Moons Aero. Its CVSS base score is 9.3 (Critical).

Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Exploit Public-Facing Application (T1190); ranked at the 43th 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 SI-10 (Information Input Validation) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

Vulnerability Data

This vulnerability exists in Aero due to improper implementation of OTP validation mechanism in certain API endpoints. An authenticated remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by intercepting and manipulating the responses exchanged during the second factor authentication process. Successful exploitation…

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Explicitly requires that every access decision be based on authoritative, protected decision data rather than caller-supplied inputs.

Input validation can reject malformed or attacker-controlled values before they reach a security decision point.

Access enforcement requires decisions to be made from trusted policy data rather than modifiable client-supplied inputs.

Information-flow enforcement applies rules to validated, internal attributes instead of untrusted external values.

PR.AA-03 mostly match
prevents

Strong authentication mechanisms directly prevent security decisions from depending on modifiable, untrusted inputs.

PR.AA-04 mostly match
prevents

Verification and protection of identity assertions stops reliance on attacker-controlled values for authorization decisions.

PR.AA-01 partial match
prevents

Proper management of identities/credentials reduces the chance that security decisions will be driven by untrusted inputs.

PR.AA-05 partial match
prevents

Policy-driven, least-privilege authorization reduces opportunities to bypass controls via tampered inputs.

prevents

Secure coding standards directly prohibit using untrusted inputs for security-critical decisions.

finds

Security testing in development catches input-validation flaws before deployment.

finds

Monitoring can detect exploitation but does not stop the underlying weakness.

prevents

Application security requirements explicitly call for validation of inputs used in security decisions.

prevents

Secure architecture principles mandate treating all external inputs as untrusted.

prevents

Access-control rules can be bypassed if they rely on untrusted inputs.
