CISA Adds One Known Exploited Vulnerability to Catalog
Jan 24, 2025
CISA has added one new vulnerability to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, based on evidence of active exploitation. CVE-2025-23006 SonicWall SMA1000 Appliances Deserialization Vulnerability These types of vulnerabilities are frequent attack vectors for malicious cyber actors and pose significant risks to the federal enterprise. Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01: Reducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities established the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog as a living list of known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) that carry significant risk to the federal enterprise. BOD 22-01 requires Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies to remediate identified vulnerabilities by the due date to protect FCEB networks against active threats. See the BOD 22-01 Fact Sheet for more information. Although BOD 22-01 only applies to FCEB agencies, CISA strongly urges all organizations to reduce their exposure to cyberattacks by prioritizing timely remediation of Catalog vulnerabilities as part of their vulnerability management practice. CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog that meet the specified criteria.

CISA and FBI Release Advisory on How Threat Actors Chained Vulnerabilities in Ivanti Cloud Service Applications
Jan 22, 2025
CISA, in partnership with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), released Threat Actors Chained Vulnerabilities in Ivanti Cloud Service Applications. This advisory was crafted in response to active exploitation of vulnerabilities—CVE-2024-8963, an administrative bypass vulnerability; CVE-2024-9379, a SQL injection vulnerability; and CVE-2024-8190 and CVE-2024-9380, remote code execution vulnerabilities—in Ivanti Cloud Service Appliances (CSA) in September 2024. CISA, and the use of trusted third-party incident response data, found that threat actors chained the listed vulnerabilities to gain initial access, conduct remote code execution (RCE), obtain credentials, and implant webshells on victim networks. CISA and FBI strongly encourage network administrators and defenders to upgrade to the latest supported version of Ivanti CSA and to hunt for malicious activity on their networks using the detection methods and indicators of compromise (IOCs) provided in the advisory. All members of the cybersecurity community are also encouraged to visit CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog to help better manage vulnerabilities and keep pace with threat activity.

CISA and FBI Release Updated Guidance on Product Security Bad Practices
Jan 17, 2025
In partnership with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), CISA released an update to joint guidance Product Security Bad Practices in furtherance of CISA’s Secure by Design initiative. This updated guidance incorporates public comments CISA received in response to a Request for Information, adding additional bad practices, context regarding memory-safe languages, clarifying timelines for patching Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEVs), and other recommendations. While this voluntary guidance is intended for software manufacturers who develop software products and services in support of critical infrastructure, all software manufacturers are strongly encouraged to avoid these product security bad practices. CISA and FBI urge software manufacturers to reduce customer risk by prioritizing security throughout the product development process.
