CVE-2024-27790
CVE-2024-27790 is a vulnerability in FileMaker Server that could allow unauthorized access to database records. The issue has been resolved in FileMaker Server 20.3.2, which now validates transactions before replying to client requests. Despite a CVSS score of 0, indicating minimal impact, SOCRadar's Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) assigns it a 30, suggesting a low, but non-negligible, level of risk. While not critical, the potential for unauthorized access means organizations should still apply the patch to prevent potential data breaches. The vulnerability, categorized as CWE-284, improper access control, emphasizes the importance of secure database management practices. While the low SVRS suggests the vulnerability may not be actively exploited, the fact it's tagged as In The Wild indicates potential awareness, and thus risk, that should be addressed. Failing to patch could lead to data exposure, which is a critical risk.
Description
CVE-2024-27790 is a vulnerability with a CVSS score of 0, indicating a low severity level. However, SOCRadar's unique 'SOCRadar Vulnerability Risk Score' (SVRS) assigns it a score of 36, highlighting the potential for significant impact. This discrepancy stems from SVRS's integration of various 'Vulnerability Intelligence' elements, including Social Media, News, Code Repositories, Dark/Deep Web data, and associations with Threat Actors and malware.
Key Insights
- Active Exploitation: The vulnerability is actively exploited in the wild, posing an immediate threat to organizations.
- Low CVSS Score: The CVSS score of 0 may underestimate the severity of the vulnerability, as it does not fully capture the potential impact identified by SVRS.
- Critical for Immediate Action: Despite the low CVSS score, the SVRS score of 36 indicates that organizations should prioritize patching or mitigating this vulnerability immediately.
- Threat Actors: Specific Threat Actors or APT Groups actively exploiting this vulnerability have not been identified at this time.
Mitigation Strategies
- Apply Patches: Organizations should prioritize applying patches or updates as soon as they become available from the vendor.
- Implement Network Segmentation: Segmenting networks can limit the spread of an attack if the vulnerability is exploited.
- Enable Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS): IDS can detect and alert on suspicious activity, providing early warning of potential attacks.
- Conduct Regular Security Audits: Regular security audits can identify vulnerabilities and help organizations prioritize remediation efforts.
