Description

CVE-2024-40766 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 38, 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.
• SVRS Criticality: The SVRS score of 38 indicates a critical vulnerability, necessitating immediate action to mitigate potential risks.
• Threat Actors: Specific Threat Actors or APT Groups actively exploiting this vulnerability have not been identified at this time.

Mitigation Strategies

• Apply Software Updates: Install the latest software updates and patches to address the vulnerability.
• Implement Network Segmentation: Segment networks to limit the spread of potential attacks.
• Enable Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS): Deploy IDS to detect and block malicious activity targeting the vulnerability.
• Conduct Regular Security Audits: Regularly assess systems for vulnerabilities and implement appropriate mitigation measures.
