Path Traversal Arbitrary File Write in Ivanti Endpoint Manager
CVE-2025-13661 is a high-severity path traversal vulnerability in Ivanti Endpoint Manager (EPM) affecting versions prior to 2024 SU4 SR1. The flaw allows a remote authenticated attacker to write arbitrary files outside the intended directory by leveraging path traversal. Available reporting indicates that exploitation requires user interaction, specifically via import of an untrusted configuration file. The issue can result in attacker-controlled file placement beyond the expected filesystem location, which may enable follow-on compromise depending on where files can be written.
