Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-9420 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ivanti Connect Secure. 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-2024-9420/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-9420/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-9420","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-9420/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-9420","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-q8fc-2r64-8hq5"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ivanti Secure Access","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A remote authenticated attacker can achieve remote code execution via a use-after-free vulnerability in Ivanti Connect Secure and Policy Secure.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ivanti","cpe":[{"product":"connect_secure","vendor":"ivanti"},{"product":"policy_secure","vendor":"ivanti"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-416","name":"Use After Free"}],"description":"A use-after-free in Ivanti Connect Secure before version 22.7R2.3 and 9.1R18.9\n\n and Ivanti Policy Secure before version 22.7R1.2 allows a remote authenticated attacker to achieve remote code execution","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":"Use after free in Connect Secure","id":"CVE-2024-9420","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ivanti:connect_secure","products":["ivanti:connect_secure","ivanti:policy_secure"],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Login Logout Shortcode \u003c= 1.1.0 - Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting via class Parameter","id":"CVE-2024-9421"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in HP Smart Universal Printing Driver","id":"CVE-2024-9419"},"products":["Connect Secure","Policy Secure"],"published":"2024-11-12","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Ivanti Pulse Connect Secure Use-After-Free","id":"CVE-2021-22893","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-04-23"},{"cvss_score":9.9,"headline":"Ivanti Pulse Connect Secure Arbitrary File Read","id":"CVE-2019-11510","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2019-05-08"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Ivanti Connect Secure and Policy Secure Command Injection","id":"CVE-2024-21887","kev_date_added":"2024-01-10","published":"2024-01-12"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Ivanti Connect Secure, Policy Secure, and ZTA Gateways Stack-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2025-22457","kev_date_added":"2025-04-04","published":"2025-04-03"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Ivanti Connect Secure, Policy Secure, and ZTA Gateways Stack-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2025-0282","kev_date_added":"2025-01-08","published":"2025-01-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Ivanti Pulse Connect Secure Collaboration Suite Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2021-22894","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-05-27"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Ivanti Pulse Connect Secure Command Injection","id":"CVE-2021-22899","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-05-27"}],"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":"2025-03-13","vendors":["Ivanti"]},"summary":"A remote authenticated attacker can achieve remote code execution via a use-after-free vulnerability in Ivanti Connect Secure and Policy Secure.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-9420/"}
