It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-9842 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ivanti Secure Access Client. 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-2024-9842/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-9842/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-9842","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-9842/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-9842","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-99w5-q9j7-6pjv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Ivanti Secure Access Client","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A local authenticated attacker can create arbitrary folders due to incorrect permissions, potentially leading to privilege escalation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ivanti","cpe":[{"product":"secure_access_client","vendor":"ivanti"}],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:N/I:L/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-732","name":"Incorrect Permission Assignment for Critical Resource"},{"id":"CWE-267","name":"Privilege Defined With Unsafe Actions"}],"description":"Incorrect permissions in Ivanti Secure Access Client before version 22.7R4 allows a local authenticated attacker to create arbitrary folders.","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":"Privilege escalation in Secure Access Client","id":"CVE-2024-9842","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in Secure Access Client","id":"CVE-2024-9843"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"OpenText ArcSight Management Center and ArcSight Platform Stored XSS","id":"CVE-2024-9841"},"products":["Secure Access Client"],"published":"2024-11-12","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Security feature bypass in Secure Access Client","id":"CVE-2026-8992","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-22"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Secure Access Client","id":"CVE-2023-35080","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Denial of service in Secure Access Client Windows","id":"CVE-2023-38043","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Denial of service in Secure Access Client Windows","id":"CVE-2023-38543","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-11-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Race condition in Secure Access Client","id":"CVE-2026-7432","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-05-12"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Secure Access Client","id":"CVE-2025-22454","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-03-11"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Privilege escalation in Secure Access Client","id":"CVE-2024-37398","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-11-13"}],"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":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-11-12","vendors":["Ivanti"]},"summary":"A local authenticated attacker can create arbitrary folders due to incorrect permissions, potentially leading to privilege escalation.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-9842/"}
