Deeper analysis

CVE-2024-8191 is a SQL injection vulnerability, tracked under CWE-89, that affects the management console of Ivanti EPM prior to the 2022 SU6 release or the September 2024 update. The flaw carries a CVSS 3.1 score of 7.8 and resides in a component reachable without authentication.

A remote unauthenticated attacker can supply crafted input to the console that triggers the injection, ultimately leading to remote code execution on the affected system. The attack requires local access vector per the CVSS metrics yet can be performed without credentials or user interaction beyond the initial request.

The official Ivanti security advisory for EPM September 2024 recommends applying the 2024 September update or upgrading to the fixed 2022 SU6 build to eliminate the vulnerable code paths. The EPSS score has reached a peak of 0.4076 with a current value of 0.3288, indicating moderate and sustained exploitation interest following disclosure.
