InfoSecBulletin Cybersecurity for mankind
CISA warns that its Chemical Security Assessment Tool (CSAT) was hacked in January. Hackers used a webshell on the Ivanti device, which may have exposed important security assessments and plans.
In March, The Record revealed that CISA had a breach after the Ivanti device was exploited, leading to two systems being taken offline for investigation.

CISA wouldn’t provide details about the incident, but according to sources from The Record, it involved the Infrastructure Protection (IP) Gateway and Chemical Security Assessment Tool (CSAT).
CSAT is an online portal used by facilities to report their possession of chemicals that could be used for terrorism. It helps determine if they are considered high-risk. If they are, the tool prompts them to upload a security vulnerability assessment (SVA) and site security plan (SSP) survey containing sensitive information about the facility.
CISA confirms breach:
CISA has confirmed the breach of the CSAT Ivanti Connect Secure appliance on January 23, 2024.
The cybersecurity agency has informed CFATS program participants about the intrusion and the potentially affected information.
“While the investigation found no evidence of credentials being stolen, CISA encourages individuals who had CSAT accounts to reset passwords for any account, business or personal, which used the same password,” CISA explained, urging organizations that use Ivanti products to read a February advisory about recent vulnerabilities affecting the company’s tools.
