Availability: High

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: High: There is total loss of confidentiality, resulting in all resources within the impacted component being divulged to the attacker. Alternatively, access to only some restricted information is obtained, but the disclosed information presents a direct, serious impact.
Integrity: High: There is a total loss of integrity, or a complete loss of protection. For example, the attacker is able to modify any/all files protected by the impacted component. Alternatively, only some files can be modified, but malicious modification would present a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component.
Availability: High: There is total loss of availability, resulting in the attacker being able to fully deny access to resources in the impacted component; this loss is either sustained (while the attacker continues to deliver the attack) or persistent (the condition persists even after the attack has completed). Alternatively, the attacker has the ability to deny some availability, but the loss of availability presents a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component (e.g., the attacker cannot disrupt existing connections, but can prevent new connections; the attacker can repeatedly exploit a vulnerability that, in each instance of a successful attack, leaks a only small amount of memory, but after repeated exploitation causes a service to become completely unavailable).

Exploitation evidence

CVE published 29 Nov 2024
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponised: no evidence on record.

Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.

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 26 Oct 2026.

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

Organizations should immediately inventory their environments to identify any affected DCME product versions. Since no patches are currently available, interim mitigations include restricting network access to the vulnerable endpoint by implementing firewall rules or network segmentation to limit exposure. Deploy web application firewalls (WAFs) with custom rules to detect and block suspicious requests targeting /function/audit/newstatistics/mon_stat_top10.php. Monitor logs for unusual activity or attempts to access this endpoint. Disable or restrict the vulnerable functionality if feasible until patches are released. Engage with the vendor for timely updates and apply patches as soon as they become available. Additionally, conduct thorough security assessments and penetration testing to identify any exploitation attempts. Implement robust endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions to detect anomalous behavior indicative of exploitation. Educate security teams about this vulnerability to ensure rapid incident response readiness.

Description

DCME-320 <=7.4.12.90, DCME-520 <=9.25.5.11, DCME-320-L <=9.3.5.26, and DCME-720 <=9.1.5.11 are vulnerable to Remote Code Execution via /function/audit/newstatistics/mon_stat_top10.php.

Impact

The impact of CVE-2024-52779 is severe for organizations using the affected DCME products. Successful exploitation allows attackers to execute arbitrary code remotely without authentication, leading to full system compromise. This can result in data breaches, unauthorized access to sensitive information, disruption of critical services, and potential lateral movement within networks. Given the affected products are likely used in network management or monitoring, attackers could manipulate monitoring data, disable alerts, or disrupt network operations, amplifying the operational impact. Enterprises with internet-facing DCME installations are particularly vulnerable to automated attacks or targeted intrusions. The vulnerability threatens confidentiality, integrity, and availability simultaneously, making it a critical risk for organizations in sectors such as telecommunications, finance, government, and critical infrastructure. The absence of known exploits in the wild currently provides a window for proactive defense, but the high severity score indicates that attackers will likely develop exploits rapidly.
