An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2024-0204 exists.\n\nAffected product: Fortra GoAnywhere MFT. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-0204/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-0204/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-0204","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-0204/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-0204","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-f8xf-39w2-mrc6"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation","account_takeover"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Managed File Transfer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can bypass authentication to create an admin user in GoAnywhere MFT, leading to full system compromise.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"auth_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Fortra","cpe":[{"product":"goanywhere_managed_file_transfer","vendor":"fortra"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-425","name":"Direct Request"}],"description":"Authentication bypass in Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT prior to 7.4.1 allows an unauthorized user to create an admin user via the administration portal.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2024-01-22","github_poc":3,"max_poc_stars":65,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":"2024-01-23T20:16:14Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/horizon3ai/CVE-2024-0204","stars":65,"title":"Authentication Bypass in GoAnywhere MFT"},{"date":"2024-01-23T22:42:58Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/cbeek-r7/CVE-2024-0204","stars":5,"title":"Scanning for vulnerable GoAnywhere MFT CVE-2024-0204"},{"date":"2024-01-24T20:10:34Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/m-cetin/CVE-2024-0204","stars":2,"title":"This script exploits the CVE-2024-0204 vulnerability in Fortra GoAnywhere MFT, allowing the creation of unauthorized administrative users, for educational and authorized testing purposes."},{"date":"2024-01-22","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/multi/http/fortra_goanywhere_mft_rce_cve_2024_0204","stars":null,"title":"Fortra GoAnywhere MFT Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution"},{"date":"2025-05-29","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"52308","stars":null,"title":"Fortra GoAnywhere MFT 7.4.1 - Authentication Bypass"},{"date":null,"kind":"nuclei","ref":"http/cves/2024/CVE-2024-0204.yaml","stars":null,"title":"Fortra GoAnywhere MFT - Authentication Bypass"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Authentication Bypass in GoAnywhere MFT","id":"CVE-2024-0204","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"auth_bypass","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Path traversal in Anti-Malware Engine","id":"CVE-2024-0206"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site request forgery in Digits: WordPress Mobile Number Signup and Login","id":"CVE-2024-0203"},"products":["GoAnywhere MFT"],"published":"2024-01-22","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Fortra GoAnywhere MFT Deserialization of Untrusted Data","id":"CVE-2025-10035","kev_date_added":"2025-09-29","published":"2025-09-18"},{"cvss_score":7.2,"headline":"Fortra GoAnywhere MFT Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2023-0669","kev_date_added":"2023-02-10","published":"2023-02-06"},{"cvss_score":7.3,"headline":"GoAnywhere MFT SFTP Service Login Vulnerable to Brute Force Attack Under Certain Circumstances","id":"CVE-2025-14362","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-21"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"User‑Controlled HTTP Header In Fortra's GoAnywhere MFT Allows Arbitrary DNS Lookups","id":"CVE-2026-1089","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-04-21"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Authentication bypass in GoAnywhere MFT prior to 7.6.0","id":"CVE-2024-25157","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-14"},{"cvss_score":6.5,"headline":"Path traversal in GoAnywhere MFT 7.4.1 and Earlier","id":"CVE-2024-25156","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-14"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"BSD-3-Clause","name":"Metasploit"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"MIT","name":"Nuclei templates"},{"class":"open","licence":"CC0","name":"PoC-in-GitHub"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-05-30","vendors":["Fortra"]},"summary":"An attacker can bypass authentication to create an admin user in GoAnywhere MFT, leading to full system compromise.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-0204/"}
