AI Analysis

Impact

The vulnerability is a deserialization of untrusted data flaw (CWE‑502) that lets an authenticated attacker run arbitrary code on the Neurons for ITSM server. Because the attacker must first authenticate, the attack scope is limited to the privileges of that user; however, any code execution on the server can compromise the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of customer data and the entire IT service management environment.

Affected Systems

Ivanti Neurons for ITSM, versions before 2026.2, are affected by this flaw. All deployments of the product that have not applied the 2026.2 release or later are vulnerable.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 8.8 indicates a high severity and the lack of an EPSS score signals insufficient data on exploitation probability. The vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. The attack path requires a remote authenticated session, so the attacker must have valid credentials and sufficient permissions on the system. Based solely on the description, it appears the flaw can be exploited by sending specially crafted serialized payloads through the application’s deserialization endpoint, leading to arbitrary code execution on the host.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Apply the Ivanti Neurons for ITSM patch 2026.2 or later to eliminate the deserialization flaw
  • Restrict access to the authentication and deserialization endpoints to trusted users only, enforcing least privilege
  • Configure intrusion‑detection or log‑monitoring to alert on abnormal deserialization attempts
