SQL Injection RCE in Ivanti Endpoint Manager Core Server
CVE-2024-29824 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability in the Core server of Ivanti Endpoint Manager (EPM) 2022 SU5 and prior. The issue is described as an unspecified SQL injection flaw that can be exploited by an unauthenticated attacker on the same network. Supporting technical reporting indicates the vulnerable code path involves the RecordGoodApp function in PatchBiz.dll, where attacker-controlled input associated with the goodApp.md5 value can be sent in an HTTP POST request to the /WSStatusEvents/EventHandler.asmx endpoint. By manipulating this value, an attacker can execute malicious SQL queries against the underlying database. Reported exploitation paths include use of SQL Server functionality such as xp_cmdshell, resulting in arbitrary command execution on the EPM server and turning the SQL injection into remote code execution.

This repository contains a proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2024-29824, a remote code execution vulnerability in Ivanti Endpoint Manager (EPM) appliances. The exploit is implemented in Python (CVE-2024-29824.py) and leverages a blind SQL injection vulnerability in the /WSStatusEvents/EventHandler.asmx SOAP endpoint. The script constructs a malicious SOAP XML payload that injects SQL commands to enable xp_cmdshell and execute arbitrary system commands on the backend SQL Server. The exploit requires the attacker to provide a target URL and a file containing commands to execute. The README.md provides usage instructions and background information. The exploit is operational, allowing for remote code execution if the target is vulnerable and accessible.
