Versa Director Authenticated Remote Code Execution (CVE-2024-39717)

high Nessus Plugin ID 207794

Synopsis

The version of Versa Director installed on the remote host is affected by an authenticated remote code execution vulnerability.

Description

The version of Versa Director installed on the remote host is affected by an authenticated remote code execution vulnerability:

 - The Versa Director GUI provides an option to customize the look and feel of the user interface. This option is only available for a user logged with Provider-Data-Center-Admin or Provider-Data-Center-System-Admin. (Tenant level users do not have this privilege). The “Change Favicon” (Favorite Icon) option can be mis-used to upload a malicious file ending with .png extension to masquerade as image file. This is possible only after a user with Provider-Data-Center-Admin or Provider-Data-Center-System-Admin has successfully authenticated and logged in.

Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Versa Director 22.1.4 or later.
