On 10 September 2024, Ivanti released fixes for CVE-2024-29847, a maximum severity vulnerability in Ivanti Endpoint Manager (EPM). This flaw, found in the agent portal of specific EPM versions, allows Remote Code Execution (RCE) by an unauthenticated attacker due to improper deserialisation of untrusted data. 

Ivanti has stated that no exploitation of CVE-2024-29847 has been detected in the wild, and Arctic Wolf has not identified any publicly accessible proof of concept (PoC) exploit code. Earlier this year, reports emerged that Chinese state-affiliated threat actors targeted two other Ivanti vulnerabilities in a widespread campaign, compromising thousands of devices. Given this history of targeting Ivanti products, these vulnerabilities could soon attract attention due to the significant access that can be gained by compromising the EPM core server.
