The severity of the Remote Code Execution - Microsoft SharePoint (CVE-2024-38094) vulnerability has increased

The severity of the Remote Code Execution – Microsoft SharePoint (CVE-2024-38094) vulnerability has increased. It was fixed as part of the July Microsoft Patch Tuesday (July 9).

SharePoint is a popular platform for corporate portals. According to the Microsoft bulletin, аn authenticated attacker with Site Owner permissions can use the vulnerability to inject arbitrary code and execute this code in the context of SharePoint Server.

On July 10, a repository with a PoC exploit for this vulnerability appeared on GitHub, as well as a video demonstrating how an attacker can launch processes on the attacked SharePoint server. A GitHub search by CVE number does not find a repository with the exploit, but a link is available in the The Hacker News article. Exploit also relates to the July SharePoint RCEs CVE-2024-38023 and CVE-2024-38024.

On October 22, the vulnerability was added to the CISA KEV, which means it was exploited in the wild.

July Microsoft Patch Tuesday

July Microsoft Patch Tuesday

July Microsoft Patch Tuesday. There are 175 vulnerabilities in total, 33 of which appeared between June and July Patch Tuesday.

There are 2 vulnerabilities with the sign of exploitation in the wild:

🔻 Spoofing – Windows MSHTML Platform (CVE-2024-38112). It’s not clear what exactly is being spoofed. Let’s wait for the details. It is currently known that to exploit the vulnerability, an attacker must send the victim a malicious (MSHTML?) file, which the victim must somehow run/open.
🔻 Elevation of Privilege – Windows Hyper-V (CVE-2024-38080). This vulnerability allows an authenticated attacker to execute code with SYSTEM privileges. Again, no details. This could be interpreted that the guest OS user can gain privileges in the host OS (I hope this is not the case).

From the rest we can highlight:

🔸 Elevation of Privilege – various Windows components (CVE-2024-38059, CVE-2024-38066, CVE-2024-38100, CVE-2024-38034, CVE-2024-38079, CVE-2024-38085, CVE-2024-38062, CVE-2024-30079, CVE-2024-38050). EoPs quite often become exploitable.
🔸 Remote Code Execution – Windows Remote Desktop Licensing Service (CVE-2024-38074, CVE-2024-38076, CVE-2024-38077)
🔸 Remote Code Execution – Microsoft Office (CVE-2024-38021)
🔸 Remote Code Execution – Windows Imaging Component (CVE-2024-38060). All you need to do is upload a malicious TIFF file to the server.
🔸 Remote Code Execution – Microsoft SharePoint Server (CVE-2024-38023, CVE-2024-38024). Authentication is required, but “Site Owner” permissions are sufficient.

🗒 Vulristics report on July Microsoft Patch Tuesday

Vulristics shows an exploit existence for Spoofing – RADIUS Protocol (CVE-2024-3596) on GitHub, but in reality it is just a detection utility.

May Microsoft Patch TuesdayMay Microsoft Patch TuesdayMay Microsoft Patch TuesdayMay Microsoft Patch TuesdayMay Microsoft Patch TuesdayMay Microsoft Patch TuesdayMay Microsoft Patch Tuesday

May Microsoft Patch Tuesday. There are 91 vulnerabilities in total. Of those, 29 were added between April and May Patch Tuesday.

Two vulnerabilities have signs of exploitation in the wild and the presence of a functional exploit (not yet public):

🔻 Security Feature Bypass – Windows MSHTML Platform (CVE-2024-30040). In fact, an attacker can execute arbitrary code when the victim opens a specially crafted document. It is exploited through phishing.
🔻 Elevation of Privilege – Windows DWM Core Library (CVE-2024-30051). A local attacker can gain SYSTEM privileges on the vulnerable host. Microsoft credits four different groups for reporting the bug, indicating that the vulnerability is being widely exploited. The vulnerability is associated with the QakBot malware.

Among the rest we can note:

🔸 Security Feature Bypass – Windows Mark of the Web (CVE-2024-30050). Such vulnerabilities have been frequently exploited recently. Microsoft indicates that there is a functional exploit (private) for the vulnerability.
🔸 Remote Code Execution – Microsoft SharePoint Server (CVE-2024-30044). An authenticated attacker with Site Owner privileges or higher can execute arbitrary code in the context of SharePoint Server by uploading a specially crafted file.
🔸 Elevation of Privilege – Windows Search Service (CVE-2024-30033). ZDI believes that the vulnerability has the potential to be exploited in the wild.
🔸 Remote Code Execution – Microsoft Excel (CVE-2024-30042). An attacker can execute code, presumably in the user’s context, when a malicious file is opened.
