Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionCVE.org
Sliver is a command and control framework that uses a custom Wireguard netstack. Prior to version 1.7.4, a single click on a malicious link gives an unauthenticated attacker immediate, silent control over every active C2 session or beacon, capable of exfiltrating all collected target data (e.g. SSH keys, ntds.dit) or destroying the entire compromised infrastructure, entirely through the operator's own browser. This issue has been patched in version 1.7.4.
AnalysisAI
Unauthenticated attackers can hijack all active Sliver C2 sessions and beacons through a single malicious link clicked by an operator, gaining immediate silent control to exfiltrate collected intelligence or destroy compromised infrastructure, prior to version 1.7.4. The vulnerability exploits browser-based interaction with the custom Wireguard netstack, bypassing authentication entirely via a user-interaction attack vector. This is a critical supply-chain risk for red teams and penetration testers relying on Sliver for command-and-control operations.
Technical ContextAI
Sliver is a command-and-control framework that implements a custom Wireguard netstack to manage operator-to-beacon communications. The vulnerability stems from missing authentication checks (CWE-306: Missing Authentication for Critical Function) in the web interface or API layer that processes operator requests. An attacker can craft a malicious link that, when clicked by an authorized operator, triggers authentication bypass logic inherent in the Wireguard netstack implementation. The attack leverages the operator's authenticated browser session context but does not require the attacker to be authenticated themselves-the link itself carries sufficient context to hijack the session state. The CVSS vector indicates an unauthenticated remote attack (PR:N) requiring user interaction (UI:A) and attack time contingency (AT:P), suggesting the malicious link must be delivered at a moment when the operator is actively using Sliver.
RemediationAI
Upgrade Sliver immediately to version 1.7.4 or later, which patches the authentication check vulnerability. This is the primary and only confirmed fix; no workarounds are documented. Operators should verify the upgrade by checking the version output (sliver-server --version or equivalent) and restart all active C2 sessions to ensure the patched authentication logic is in effect. Pending upgrade, operational security measures include restricting operator access to trusted networks, disabling external link navigation within Sliver, and monitoring for signs of unauthorized C2 hijacking (unexpected beacon behavior, data exfiltration alerts).
