CVE-2024-29078

7.5 HIGH

📋 TL;DR

This vulnerability allows remote unauthenticated attackers to alter MosP kintai kanri settings by exploiting incorrect permission assignments for critical resources. It affects all users running MosP kintai kanri V4.6.6 and earlier versions. Attackers with network access to the product can modify configuration settings without authentication.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • MosP kintai kanri
Versions: V4.6.6 and earlier
Operating Systems: Any OS running MosP kintai kanri
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: All default installations are vulnerable. No special configuration required for exploitation.

⚠️ Manual Verification Required

This CVE does not have specific version information in our database, so automatic vulnerability detection cannot determine if your system is affected.

Why? The CVE database entry doesn't specify which versions are vulnerable (no version ranges provided by the vendor/NVD).

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete system compromise allowing attackers to reconfigure the application for malicious purposes, potentially enabling data theft, service disruption, or further privilege escalation.

🟠

Likely Case

Unauthorized modification of application settings leading to operational disruption, data integrity issues, or enabling additional attack vectors.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact with proper network segmentation and access controls preventing unauthorized access to the application interface.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH - Remote unauthenticated exploitation makes internet-facing instances particularly vulnerable to widespread attacks.
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM - Internal attackers or compromised internal systems could exploit this, but requires network access to the application.

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ✅ No
Weaponized: UNKNOWN
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

The vulnerability description suggests straightforward exploitation requiring only network access to the application interface.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: V4.6.7 or later

Vendor Advisory: https://www.e-s-mind.com/2024-02-20/

Restart Required: Yes

Instructions:

1. Download the latest version from the vendor
2. Backup current installation and data
3. Install the updated version following vendor instructions
4. Restart the application service
5. Verify functionality

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Network Access Restriction

all

Restrict network access to MosP kintai kanri to only trusted IP addresses or internal networks

# Example firewall rule (Linux iptables)
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport [APP_PORT] -s [TRUSTED_IP] -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport [APP_PORT] -j DROP

Reverse Proxy with Authentication

all

Place application behind a reverse proxy requiring authentication before reaching the vulnerable interface

# Example nginx basic auth configuration
location / {
  auth_basic "Restricted";
  auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd;
  proxy_pass http://localhost:[APP_PORT];
}

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Implement strict network segmentation to isolate MosP kintai kanri from untrusted networks
  • Deploy a web application firewall (WAF) with rules to detect and block unauthorized configuration modification attempts

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check the application version in the admin interface or configuration files. If version is 4.6.6 or earlier, the system is vulnerable.

Check Version:

Check the application web interface or configuration files for version information. No universal command exists as this is a web application.

Verify Fix Applied:

Verify the application version shows 4.6.7 or later after patching. Test that unauthenticated users cannot access configuration modification endpoints.

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unauthenticated access to configuration endpoints
  • Unexpected configuration changes in application logs
  • Access from unauthorized IP addresses to admin interfaces

Network Indicators:

  • Unusual traffic patterns to configuration endpoints
  • Requests to modify settings from unauthenticated sources

SIEM Query:

source="mosp_logs" AND (uri="/config/*" OR uri="/admin/*") AND user="anonymous"
