Synopsis

A NAC solution installed on the remote host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The Ivanti Policy Secure installed on the remote host is 9.x or 22.x. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- A heap overflow vulnerability in IPSec component of Ivanti Connect Secure (9.x, 22.x) and Ivanti Policy Secure allows an unauthenticated malicious user to send specially crafted requests in-order-to crash the service thereby causing a DoS attack. In certain conditions this may lead to execution of arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-21894)

- A null pointer dereference vulnerability in IPSec component of Ivanti Connect Secure (9.x, 22.x) and Ivanti Policy Secure allows an unauthenticated malicious user to send specially crafted requests in-order-to crash the service thereby causing a DoS attack. (CVE-2024-22052)

- A heap overflow vulnerability in IPSec component of Ivanti Connect Secure (9.x, 22.x) and Ivanti Policy Secure allows an unauthenticated malicious user to send specially crafted requests in-order-to crash the service thereby causing a DoS attack or in certain conditions read contents from memory. (CVE-2024-22053)

- An XML entity expansion or XEE vulnerability in SAML component of Ivanti Connect Secure (9.x, 22.x) and Ivanti Policy Secure allows an unauthenticated attacker to send specially crafted XML requests in-order-to temporarily cause resource exhaustion thereby resulting in a limited-time DoS. (CVE-2024-22023)
