CVE-2024-55410
CVE-2024-55410 is a rejected or withdrawn CVE ID, meaning the described issue is not considered a valid vulnerability by the CVE Numbering Authority. This suggests the initial assessment was incorrect or the problem was resolved differently. Despite the rejection, it is important to understand why it was initially flagged. The SVRS score of 30 indicates a low level of associated risk, even if it were a valid vulnerability. The initial classification of "In The Wild" suggests it was believed to be actively exploited at one point. Organizations should verify the reason for the rejection to ensure no actual threat exists, even if the CVE itself is invalid. Reviewing internal systems is crucial to validate that the initial reported concern does not pose an unreported issue.
Description
CVE-2024-55410 is a vulnerability in the Asus GPU Tweak II Program Driver v1.0.0.0, specifically in the 690b33e1-0462-4e84-9bea-c7552b45432a.sys component. This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary read and write actions by sending crafted IOCTL requests. This could potentially lead to data breaches, system compromises, and denial-of-service attacks.
While the CVSS score is 7.8, indicating a high severity, the SOCRadar Vulnerability Risk Score (SVRS) is 42, which signifies a moderate risk. This indicates that while the vulnerability itself is serious, it may not be actively exploited in the wild or by known threat actors at this time.
Key Insights
- Vulnerability Type: This is a local privilege escalation vulnerability. Attackers would need to have local access to the affected system to exploit it.
- Impact: Successful exploitation could allow attackers to gain full control over the affected system, potentially leading to data theft, system manipulation, or denial-of-service attacks.
- Affected Software: The Asus GPU Tweak II Program Driver v1.0.0.0 is the only confirmed affected software.
- Exploit Status: Currently, there is no publicly available exploit code for this vulnerability. However, it is possible that private exploit tools might exist.
Mitigation Strategies
- Patching: Update the Asus GPU Tweak II Program Driver to the latest version as soon as possible. This will patch the vulnerability and prevent attackers from exploiting it.
- Network Segmentation: Implement network segmentation to isolate the affected system from other critical systems. This will limit the impact of a successful attack.
- Access Control: Implement strong access control measures to restrict access to the affected system and its associated resources. This will help prevent unauthorized access and exploitation of the vulnerability.
- Security Monitoring: Implement robust security monitoring solutions to detect any suspicious activity that might indicate an attempt to exploit the vulnerability.
