CVE-2024-53673Network attack vector

Unauthenticated code execution via DESTA deserialization

Published Nov 26, 2024 · Updated Nov 27, 2024

Java deserialization in HPE Insight Remote Support before 7.14.0.629 allows remote attackers to execute code without authentication. The DESTA service on TCP port 7901 accepts user-supplied data without proper validation and deserializes it as trusted Java objects. A crafted network request runs attacker-controlled code as Windows SYSTEM, enabling full compromise of the hosting device.
