CVE-2024-23917
Jetbrains
CVE-2024-23917: Authentication bypass leading to Remote Code Execution (RCE) in JetBrains TeamCity versions prior to 2023.11.3. This vulnerability allows unauthorized access, potentially enabling attackers to execute arbitrary code on the affected TeamCity server. With a critical SOCRadar Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) of 89, this vulnerability demands immediate attention and remediation. Exploitation of CVE-2024-23917 allows threat actors to completely compromise the TeamCity server and potentially pivot to other systems within the network. Given its presence 'In The Wild', organizations using vulnerable TeamCity versions are urged to upgrade to version 2023.11.3 or later immediately to mitigate this significant risk. The high SVRS reflects the elevated risk due to observed exploitation and the severe consequences of a successful attack.
Description:
CVE-2024-23917 is a critical vulnerability in JetBrains TeamCity, a popular continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) tool. This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary code on the affected system. The SVRS for this vulnerability is 50, indicating a moderate risk. However, due to the potential impact of this vulnerability, it is still considered a high priority for remediation.
Key Insights:
- Authentication Bypass: This vulnerability allows an attacker to bypass authentication and gain unauthorized access to the affected system. This could allow the attacker to access sensitive data, modify or delete files, or even execute arbitrary code.
- Remote Code Execution: The attacker can execute arbitrary code on the affected system. This could allow the attacker to install malware, create backdoors, or launch other attacks.
- High Impact: This vulnerability could have a significant impact on the affected system. It could lead to data loss, disruption of services, or even complete compromise of the system.
Mitigation Strategies:
- Update JetBrains TeamCity: The vendor has released a patch to address this vulnerability. It is recommended that users update to the latest version of JetBrains TeamCity as soon as possible.
- Enable Two-Factor Authentication: Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security to user accounts. It requires users to provide a second form of identification, such as a code sent to their mobile phone, in addition to their password.
- Implement Network Segmentation: Network segmentation can help to limit the impact of a successful attack. By dividing the network into smaller segments, it can make it more difficult for an attacker to move laterally through the network and access other systems.
- Educate Users: It is important to educate users about the risks of this vulnerability and how to protect themselves. Users should be aware of the importance of using strong passwords and not clicking on suspicious links or opening attachments from unknown senders.
Additional Information:
- Threat Actors/APT Groups: There is no information available about specific threat actors or APT groups actively exploiting this vulnerability.
- Exploit Status: There are no known active exploits for this vulnerability.
- CISA Warnings: The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has not issued a warning about this vulnerability.
- In the Wild: There is no information available about this vulnerability being used in the wild.
