CVE-2024-44808

9.8 CRITICAL

📋 TL;DR

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on Vypor Attack API System v1.0 servers by manipulating the user GET parameter. Attackers can gain full control of affected systems, potentially leading to data theft, system compromise, or use in botnets. Only users running Vypor Attack API System v1.0 are affected.

💻 Affected Systems

Products:
  • Vypor Attack API System
Versions: v1.0
Operating Systems: Any OS running the vulnerable software
Default Config Vulnerable: ⚠️ Yes
Notes: The vulnerability exists in the default installation and requires no special configuration to be exploitable.

⚠️ 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).

  2. Check vendor security advisories for your specific version
  3. Test if the vulnerability is exploitable in your environment
  4. Consider updating to the latest version as a precaution

⚠️ Risk & Real-World Impact

🔴

Worst Case

Complete system takeover, data exfiltration, installation of persistent backdoors, and use of the server as part of a botnet for DDoS attacks or cryptocurrency mining.

🟠

Likely Case

Remote code execution leading to server compromise, credential theft, and potential lateral movement within the network.

🟢

If Mitigated

Limited impact if proper network segmentation, web application firewalls, and input validation are in place.

🌐 Internet-Facing: HIGH
🏢 Internal Only: MEDIUM

🎯 Exploit Status

Public PoC: ⚠️ Yes
Weaponized: CONFIRMED
Unauthenticated Exploit: ⚠️ Yes
Complexity: LOW

Exploitation is trivial with publicly available proof-of-concept code. No authentication is required.

🛠️ Fix & Mitigation

✅ Official Fix

Patch Version: Not available

Vendor Advisory: Not available

Restart Required: No

Instructions:

No official patch is available. Consider the workarounds below or discontinue use of the software.

🔧 Temporary Workarounds

Input Validation Filter

all

Implement strict input validation to sanitize the user GET parameter

Modify source code to validate/sanitize user input before processing

Web Application Firewall Rule

all

Block malicious requests containing command injection patterns

Add WAF rule to block requests with suspicious patterns in GET parameters

🧯 If You Can't Patch

  • Immediately remove the software from production environments
  • Implement strict network segmentation to isolate affected systems

🔍 How to Verify

Check if Vulnerable:

Check if Vypor Attack API System v1.0 is installed and accessible

Check Version:

Check software version in configuration files or interface

Verify Fix Applied:

Test with known exploit payloads to confirm they no longer execute

📡 Detection & Monitoring

Log Indicators:

  • Unusual command execution patterns in web server logs
  • Suspicious GET parameters containing shell commands

Network Indicators:

  • HTTP requests with command injection payloads in GET parameters

SIEM Query:

web.url:*user=*&* AND (web.url:*cmd* OR web.url:*bash* OR web.url:*powershell*)
