Affected Versions:
Vulnerabilities CVE-2024-8963, CVE-2024-8190, and CVE-2024-9380 impact Ivanti CSA 4.6x versions prior to build 519.CVE-2024-9379 and CVE-2024-9380 additionally affect CSA versions 5.0.1 and below.
It’s important to note that Ivanti CSA 4.6 has reached its end-of-life (EOL) and no longer receives security patches or updates. Users of version 4.6 are strongly encouraged to upgrade to a supported version to reduce these security risks.
CISA and FBI recommend upgrading to the latest supported Ivanti CSA version, deploying Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions, logging network activity to spot suspicious behavior, and ensuring regular patching of operating systems, software, and firmware within 24-48 hours of vulnerability disclosures.
