CVE-2024-50329
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedPath traversal in Ivanti Endpoint Manager before 2024 November Security Update or 2022 SU6 November Security Update allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to achieve remote code execution. User interaction is required.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidencePath traversal vulnerability in Ivanti Endpoint Manager allows remote unauthenticated attackers to achieve remote code execution by manipulating file paths to access restricted directories. The vulnerability requires user interaction to trigger, likely through a malicious request or link that the victim initiates.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Verify Ivanti Endpoint Manager is installedCheck for the Ivanti Endpoint Manager service or application in Windows Services, or look for its installation directory under Program FilesAffected if The application is present on the system
-
Determine installed versionOpen the Ivanti Endpoint Manager console, or check Add/Remove Programs, or right-click the executable and view Properties > Details for version informationAffected if Version is listed as 2022 or 2024 (any build), or any version prior to 2022
-
Confirm patch statusCheck if Security Update November SU6 (for 2022) or the November 2024 security update (for 2024) has been applied by reviewing the installed updates or patch history within Ivanti Endpoint ManagerAffected if The November security updates have NOT been applied to version 2022 or 2024, or version is shown as unpatched
-
Check for suspicious file access patternsReview web server or application logs for unusual path traversal patterns (such as ../../../) targeting restricted directoriesAffected if Logs show unauthorized path traversal attempts to system directories
If Ivanti Endpoint Manager version 2022 or 2024 is installed without the November security updates applied, the system is vulnerable to this path traversal vulnerability.
