RCE in Pulse Connect Secure (CVE-2020-8218)

Indice:

Oggi, vorremmo mettervi in guardia riguardo a una vulnerabilità recentemente scoperta che consente l’esecuzione di codice remoto nell’applicazione Pulse Connect Secure versione<9.1R8. Come menzionato nella ricerca, la CVE-2020-8218 permette a un truffatore di eseguire codice arbitrario in remoto sul VPN Pulse Connector nella sua penultima versione disponibile.

Vulnerabilità CVE-2020-8218 in Pulse Connect Secure

La CVE-2020-8218 è una delle quattro vulnerabilità recentemente individuate in Pulse Secure. Esiste già una versione patchata dell’applicazione Pulse Connect tuttavia continuiamo a informare la comunità sui possibili rischi dell’utilizzo di un’applicazione non patchata.

Sebbene lo sfruttamento riuscito della vulnerabilità richieda privilegi di amministratore, il modo più semplice per defraudare i diritti amministrativi è inviare un link con un URL malevolo in una email e attirare l’amministratore a cliccarci sopra. I VPN sono diventati particolarmente importanti e attuali durante il lockdown, permettendo alle aziende di crittografare le comunicazioni aziendali nonché autenticare gli utenti.

Pulse Secure ha aggiunto molte misure di rafforzamento della sicurezza nella loro applicazione, tuttavia, i ricercatori sono riusciti a inviare il payload alla macchina compromessa e hanno ottenuto l’esecuzione di codice remoto. Sebbene l’autenticazione sia stata effettivamente ottenuta tramite un link fornito da un attacco di phishing, la vulnerabilità CVE-2020-8218 non dovrebbe essere ignorata.
