|
| Impact | Critical risk (CVSS 9.8, EPSS 93.5%). The existence of three separate path traversal vulnerabilities suggests deep-rooted input validation failures that may indicate additional undiscovered variants. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | If CVE-2024-13159 is mitigated via WAF rules, the attacker uses this alternative path traversal to achieve the same file reading capability through a different request pattern. |

Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
Absolute path traversal in Ivanti EPM before the 2024 January-2025 Security Update and 2022 SU6 January-2025 Security Update allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to leak sensitive information.
Executive ViewAI
Organizations using Ivanti EPM face critical risk from CVE-2024-13160 rated CVSS 9.8. Successful exploitation could critically impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of affected systems. This vulnerability is actively exploited in the wild (KEV-listed) and requires immediate remediation. Immediate patching is required per CISA KEV mandate.
Apply vendor patch. If immediate patching is not feasible: (1) Implement network-level access controls to limit exposure; (2) Enable enhanced monitoring and alerting; (3) Apply principle of least privilege.
