CVE-2024-13159Known exploitationPublic exploitNetwork attack vector

Machine credential coercion via unchecked wildcard path

Published Jan 14, 2025 · Updated Oct 21, 2025

Absolute path traversal in Ivanti Endpoint Manager 2024 and 2022 SU6 before their January 2025 updates allows remote attackers to read sensitive data. The unauthenticated GetHashForWildcardRecursive API passes a user-controlled wildcard through Path.GetDirectoryName and Path.Combine without validation, allowing recursive access to an attacker-selected directory or remote UNC path. A crafted request can coerce the Windows core server's machine credential for relay attacks, with downstream compromise dependent on the relay target and domain permissions.
