An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2024-9474 in the wild since at least 18 Nov 2024, including in ransomware campaigns.\n\nAffected product: Paloaltonetworks Pan-Os. 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-2024-9474/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-9474/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-9474","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-9474/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-9474","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-cgvw-jh5j-mgq3"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["privilege_escalation","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Palo Alto Networks firewall","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A PAN-OS administrator can escalate privileges to root via the web management interface, allowing full control over the firewall.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"palo_alto","cpe":[{"product":"pan-os","vendor":"paloaltonetworks"}],"cvss":{"score":6.9,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/AU:N/R:U/V:C/RE:H/U:Red","version":"4.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-78","name":"Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command"}],"description":"A privilege escalation vulnerability in Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS software allows a PAN-OS administrator with access to the management web interface to perform actions on the firewall with root privileges.\n\nCloud NGFW and Prisma Access are not impacted by this vulnerability.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":"2024-11-18","github_poc":5,"max_poc_stars":45,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":1,"refs":[{"date":"2024-11-19T17:26:27Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/Chocapikk/CVE-2024-9474","stars":45,"title":"PAN-OS auth bypass + RCE"},{"date":"2024-11-19T22:03:13Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/k4nfr3/CVE-2024-9474","stars":10,"title":null},{"date":"2024-12-11T03:10:41Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/coskper-papa/PAN-OS_CVE-2024-9474","stars":2,"title":"Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS(CVE-2024-9474) POC"},{"date":"2025-01-16T20:07:14Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/aratane/CVE-2024-9474","stars":1,"title":"Palo Alto RCE Vuln"},{"date":"2024-11-18","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/linux/http/panos_management_unauth_rce","stars":null,"title":"Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS Management Interface Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution"},{"date":"2024-11-20T22:31:50Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/deathvu/CVE-2024-9474","stars":0,"title":"PoC for PAN-OS Exploit"},{"date":null,"kind":"nuclei","ref":"http/cves/2024/CVE-2024-9474.yaml","stars":null,"title":"PAN-OS Management Web Interface - Command Injection"}],"tier":"exploited"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS Management Interface OS Command Injection","id":"CVE-2024-9474","indexable":true,"kev":{"dateAdded":"2024-11-18","dueDate":"2024-12-09","knownRansomwareCampaignUse":"Known","product":"PAN-OS","requiredAction":"Apply mitigations per vendor instructions or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.
