An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-8785 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Progress Whatsup Gold. 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-2024-8785/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-8785/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-8785","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-8785/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-8785","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5wjj-xchx-55wf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Network monitoring software","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote unauthenticated attackers can overwrite registry values via NmAPI.exe to achieve remote code execution in WhatsUp Gold.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ProgressSoftware","cpe":[{"product":"whatsup_gold","vendor":"progress"}],"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-648","name":"Incorrect Use of Privileged APIs"}],"description":"In WhatsUp Gold versions released before 2024.0.1, a remote unauthenticated attacker could leverage NmAPI.exe to create or change an existing registry value in registry path HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\WOW6432Node\\Ipswitch\\.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"WhatsUp Gold Registry Overwrite Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-8785","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"progress:whatsup_gold","products":["progress:whatsup_gold"],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Auto Featured Image from Title \u003c= 2.3 - Reflected Cross-Site Scripting","id":"CVE-2024-8786"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"QDocs Smart School Management System Chat mynewuser sql injection","id":"CVE-2024-8784"},"products":["WhatsUp Gold"],"published":"2024-12-02","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Progress WhatsUp Gold SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2024-6670","kev_date_added":"2024-09-16","published":"2024-08-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Progress WhatsUp Gold Path Traversal","id":"CVE-2024-4885","kev_date_added":"2025-03-03","published":"2024-06-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"WhatsUp Gold WriteDataFile Directory Traversal Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-46909","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-12-02"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"WhatsUp Gold getReport Missing Authentication Authentication Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-7763","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-10-24"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"WhatsUp Gold GetStatisticalMonitorList SQL Injection Authentication Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-6671","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-08-29"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"WhatsUp Gold WriteDataFile Directory Traversal Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-4883","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-25"}],"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)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-12-02","vendors":["Progress Software Corporation"]},"summary":"Remote unauthenticated attackers can overwrite registry values via NmAPI.exe to achieve remote code execution in WhatsUp Gold.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-8785/"}
