CVE-2025-62386: CWE-89 Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in Ivanti Endpoint Manager
SQL injection in Ivanti Endpoint Manager before version 2024 SU5 allows a remote authenticated attacker to read arbitrary data from the database.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2025-62386 is an SQL injection vulnerability identified in Ivanti Endpoint Manager before version 2024 SU5. The root cause is improper neutralization of special elements used in SQL commands (CWE-89), which allows a remote attacker with valid authentication to inject malicious SQL queries. This flaw enables the attacker to read arbitrary data from the application’s database, potentially exposing sensitive information such as user credentials, configuration details, or other confidential data stored within the system. The vulnerability does not allow modification or deletion of data (no integrity or availability impact) but compromises confidentiality. The attack vector is network-based (AV:N), with low attack complexity (AC:L), requiring privileges (PR:L) but no user interaction (UI:N). The scope is unchanged (S:U), meaning the impact is limited to the vulnerable component. No public exploits have been reported yet, but the vulnerability is publicly disclosed and should be considered a significant risk for organizations relying on Ivanti Endpoint Manager for endpoint management and security. The lack of available patches at the time of disclosure necessitates immediate mitigation through access controls and monitoring.
Potential Impact
For European organizations, the primary impact is the potential unauthorized disclosure of sensitive data stored within Ivanti Endpoint Manager databases. This could include endpoint inventory, configuration data, and possibly credentials or tokens used for further internal access. Exposure of such data can facilitate lateral movement, espionage, or preparation for more damaging attacks. Since Ivanti Endpoint Manager is widely used in enterprise IT environments for endpoint management, organizations in sectors such as finance, healthcare, government, and critical infrastructure could face increased risk. The requirement for authentication limits exploitation to insiders or attackers who have compromised credentials, but this does not eliminate the threat, especially in environments with weak access controls or credential management. The vulnerability does not directly affect system integrity or availability, so operational disruptions are less likely, but data confidentiality breaches can have regulatory and reputational consequences under GDPR and other European data protection laws.
Mitigation Recommendations
1. Apply the official patch or upgrade to Ivanti Endpoint Manager version 2024 SU5 or later as soon as it becomes available. 2. Until patches are applied, enforce strict access controls limiting Endpoint Manager access to trusted administrators only, using network segmentation and VPNs where possible. 3. Implement multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all accounts with access to Ivanti Endpoint Manager to reduce the risk of credential compromise. 4. Monitor logs and database queries for unusual or suspicious activity indicative of SQL injection attempts. 5. Conduct regular credential audits and rotate passwords to minimize the risk from compromised accounts. 6. Employ Web Application Firewalls (WAF) or database activity monitoring tools that can detect and block SQL injection patterns. 7. Educate administrators about the risk and signs of exploitation to enable rapid detection and response. 8. Review and harden database permissions to ensure the Endpoint Manager service account has the minimum necessary privileges.
