How threat intelligence can improve vulnerability management outcomes
It might surprise you to know that more than 70 new vulnerabilities are published every day. And despite their risk-reducing value in helping SOC teams address these, vulnerability management solutions have drawbacks. Often, they only provide a snapshot of an organization's vulnerabilities at a point in time. In fact, owing to their nature, vulnerabilities identified today may not exist tomorrow, or they may appear and disappear intermittently. This leaves security teams scrambling to understand not only what the risk is, but how it affects them and where they should start first with any remediation.

CVE-2024-29204, CVE-2024-24996: Critical Vulnerabilities in Ivanti Avalanche
On April 16, 2024, Ivanti disclosed two critical vulnerabilities within its Avalanche Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution. These vulnerabilities, identified as CVE-2024-29204 and CVE-2024-24996, are heap overflow issues in the WLInfoRailService and WLAvalancheService components, respectively. Both vulnerabilities have been assigned a CVSS score of 9.8, indicating their critical nature due to the potential for unauthenticated Remote Code Execution (RCE) in low-complexity attacks.
Salt Security Addresses Critical OAuth Vulnerabilities Enhancing API Security with OAuth Protection Package
OAuth is an important part of modern authorization frameworks, granting access to resources across different applications easily. However, vulnerabilities in OAuth implementations can create significant security risks. Following research released by Salt labs that uncovered critical vulnerabilities in the world's most popular authorization mechanism, Salt has released a multi-layered protection package to detect attempts to exploit OAuth and proactively fix the vulnerabilities.

Palo Alto Global Protect Command Injection Vulnerability
On April 12, 2024, Palo Alto disclosed a critical vulnerability identified as CVE-2024-3400 in its PAN OS operating system, which carries the highest severity rating of 10.0 on the CVSS scale. This vulnerability, present in certain versions of Palo Alto Networks’ PAN-OS within the GlobalProtect feature, allows unauthenticated attackers to execute any code with root privileges on the firewall through command injection.
Quick Guide to the OWASP OSS Risk Top 10
CVEs, or known and cataloged software vulnerabilities, dominate the discussion about open source software (OSS) risk. In 2016, 6,457 CVEs were reported. That number has grown every year since, reaching 28,961 CVEs reported in 2023—an increase of nearly 4.5 times in just seven years. 2024 is already on track to beat 2023, and we will likely see even faster growth once AI is earnestly set to the task of finding vulnerabilities (not to mention creating them).
Identify, Respond, & Protect - Defending yourself from the newly disclosed Palo Alto PAN-OS CVE
On April 12th, Palo Alto disclosed a vulnerability with a maximum severity rating for the PAN-OS Global Protect Gateway. There was clear evidence that the vulnerability was being actively exploited as early as March 26th. When exploited, this vulnerability enables an unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary code with root privileges on the firewall. Palo Alto expected patches to be released for tested mitigations to block known attacks on April 14th.
