CVE-2024-58127

Vulnerability: Access Control Vulnerability in Security Verification Module

  • Description: A weakness exists in the security verification module allowing unauthorized access.

  • CVE: CVE-2024-58127

  • Severity: High (CVSS v3.1 Score: 8.4)

    • Attack Vector: Network (AV:N)
    • Attack Complexity: Low (AC:L)
    • Privileges Required: None (PR:N)
    • User Interaction: None (UI:N)
    • Scope: Changed (S:C)
    • Confidentiality Impact: High (C:H)
    • Integrity Impact: High (I:H)
    • Availability Impact: None (A:N)
  • Impact: Successful exploitation affects integrity and confidentiality of the system.

  • Known Exploit: Information awaiting analysis.

Remediation / Mitigation Strategy:

  1. Immediate Action (Until Patch is Available):

    • Network Segmentation: Isolate the affected system or service to limit the potential blast radius if an attack occurs. Implement strict network access controls to limit traffic to only necessary services.
    • Monitoring & Logging: Increase monitoring and logging of authentication attempts and suspicious activity related to the security verification module. Implement intrusion detection systems (IDS) rules to identify potential exploitation attempts.
    • Least Privilege: If possible, review and restrict user accounts and privileges to the minimum required to perform their duties. Even without a known exploit, reducing the potential impact of a compromised account is crucial.
    • Web Application Firewall (WAF): Implement or strengthen WAF rules to filter potentially malicious requests targeting the security verification module.
  2. Long-Term Solution (Patch Application):

    • Patch Application: Apply the official security patch released by Huawei as soon as it becomes available. This is the most effective way to address the vulnerability. Monitor Huawei’s security advisories for updates regarding CVE-2024-58127.
    • Verification: After applying the patch, thoroughly test the system or service to ensure the vulnerability is remediated and the fix hasn’t introduced any new issues.
    • Security Review: Conduct a thorough security review of the security verification module and related components to identify and address any other potential vulnerabilities.
  3. Ongoing Preventative Measures:

    • Regular Security Audits: Conduct regular security audits and penetration testing to proactively identify vulnerabilities in the system.
    • Vulnerability Management: Implement a robust vulnerability management program to track and remediate vulnerabilities in a timely manner.
    • Security Awareness Training: Provide security awareness training to users to educate them about potential threats and how to avoid them.
    • Stay Informed: Subscribe to security advisories from Huawei and other relevant sources to stay informed about the latest vulnerabilities and security threats.
