CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N

Attack Vector: Network
Attack Complexity: Low
Privileges Required: None
User Interaction: None
Scope: Unchanged
Confidentiality: Low
Integrity: None
Availability: None

Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: Low: There is some loss of confidentiality. Access to some restricted information is obtained, but the attacker does not have control over what information is obtained, or the amount or kind of loss is limited. The information disclosure does not cause a direct, serious loss to the impacted component.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: None: There is no impact to availability within the impacted component.

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 2026-10-26.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

What to do

AI-suggested

To mitigate CVE-2024-41517, organizations should immediately restrict access to the "/admin/benutzer/institution/rechteverwaltung/uebersicht" endpoint by implementing strong authentication and authorization controls, ensuring only authorized administrative users can access this resource. Network-level controls such as IP whitelisting or VPN requirements can further limit exposure. Monitoring and logging access to administrative endpoints should be enhanced to detect any unauthorized attempts. If patches or updates become available from Feripro, they should be applied promptly. In the absence of official patches, consider deploying web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to block unauthorized requests targeting this endpoint. Conduct a thorough review of user privilege assignments and audit logs to detect any suspicious activity. Educate administrative users about the risks of privilege information disclosure and enforce strong credential policies to reduce the risk of subsequent attacks leveraging leaked data.

Description

An Incorrect Access Control vulnerability in "/admin/benutzer/institution/rechteverwaltung/uebersicht" in Feripro <= v2.2.3 allows remote attackers to get a list of all users and their corresponding privileges.

Impact

The primary impact of CVE-2024-41517 is the unauthorized disclosure of user and privilege information within affected Feripro installations. This information leakage can facilitate attacker reconnaissance, enabling them to identify high-privilege accounts and tailor subsequent attacks such as social engineering, credential stuffing, or privilege escalation. Although the vulnerability does not directly compromise system integrity or availability, the exposure of sensitive user privilege data undermines organizational security posture and increases the risk of more severe attacks. Organizations relying on Feripro for institutional or administrative management may face increased risk of targeted intrusions, especially if attackers combine this information with other vulnerabilities or weak credential policies. The lack of authentication requirements for exploitation broadens the attack surface, potentially allowing external threat actors to gather sensitive data without detection. While no active exploitation is currently known, the medium severity rating and ease of access make timely remediation important to prevent future attacks.
