CVE-2024-24873: CWE-799: Improper Control of Interaction Frequency in CodePeople CP Polls
CVE-2024-24873 is an Improper Control of Interaction Frequency vulnerability in CodePeople CP Polls versions up to 1. 0. 71. This flaw allows an attacker to perform flooding attacks by interacting with the poll functionality excessively without proper rate limiting. The vulnerability has a CVSS 3. 1 base score of 5. 3, indicating a medium severity level. There is no indication of confidentiality or availability impact, only integrity is affected. No official patch or remediation guidance is currently available from the vendor. No known exploits in the wild have been reported.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2024-24873 affects CodePeople CP Polls (up to version 1.0.71) and is classified under CWE-799, which involves improper control of interaction frequency. This vulnerability enables an attacker to flood the poll system by submitting interactions at a high rate without effective throttling or rate limiting controls. The CVSS score of 5.3 reflects a medium severity with network attack vector, low attack complexity, no privileges required, and no user interaction needed. The impact is limited to integrity, with no direct confidentiality or availability consequences reported. No patch or official remediation has been published by CodePeople at this time.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows attackers to flood the CP Polls system with excessive interactions, potentially leading to integrity issues such as poll manipulation or skewed results. There is no reported impact on confidentiality or availability. The medium CVSS score reflects a moderate risk primarily due to the potential for misuse of poll data integrity.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should consider implementing external rate limiting or interaction throttling mechanisms at the network or application layer to mitigate flooding risks. Monitor for updates from CodePeople regarding official patches or mitigations.
