The company warns that the situation is still changing, and multiple threat actors can quickly adjust their tactics to exploit these issues in their campaigns.
“At the time of publication, the exploitation of CVE-2024-21893 appears to be targeted. Ivanti expects the threat actor to change their behavior and we expect a sharp increase in exploitation once this information is public – similar to what we observed on 11 January following the 10 January disclosure.” reads the advisory.
“Be aware that the situation is still evolving. Ivanti will update this knowledge base article as more information becomes available.”
The software firm suggests using the “mitigation.release.20240126.5.xml” file from the download portal as a temporary solution for CVE-2024-21888 and CVE-2024-21893.
In January 2024, Ivanti reported that hackers were using two new vulnerabilities to run commands on specific gateways.
Today, researchers from cybersecurity company Synacktiv analyzed a Rust malware called KrustyLoader, which was used by threat actors to exploit vulnerabilities.
