Details
CVE-2024-51505 describes a privilege escalation vulnerability affecting Atos Eviden IDRA versions prior to 2.7.1. A user with the “Config Admin” role can exploit a race condition to gain elevated privileges within the system. This could allow the attacker to perform unauthorized actions, potentially compromising the security and integrity of the IDRA system and its managed resources.
Remediation
To mitigate the risk associated with CVE-2024-51505, the following remediation strategy is recommended:
Upgrade Atos Eviden IDRA: The primary and most effective solution is to upgrade to Atos Eviden IDRA version 2.7.1 or later. This version contains a patch that addresses the race condition vulnerability.
Monitor System Logs: Continuously monitor system logs for any suspicious activity, especially actions performed by users with the Config Admin role. Look for patterns that might indicate an attempted privilege escalation.
Apply Workarounds (if upgrade is not immediately possible): While upgrading is the preferred solution, if an immediate upgrade is not feasible, consider implementing temporary workarounds. This might involve stricter auditing of Config Admin actions and further limiting the permissions assigned to this role until the upgrade can be performed. However, exercise caution when modifying role permissions, as it can impact the intended functionality of IDRA. This should only be a temporary measure.
