Who is affected

ProductAffectedNot affected
Ivanti CSA (Cloud Services Appliance)Not stated4.6 Patch 519 is not affected; 5.0 is not affected

Version ranges exactly as the CVE record states them. “Before X” means X is the first fixed version.

Exploit Observer also maps it to: ivanti cloud_services_appliance, ivanti endpoint_manager_cloud_services_appliance, ivanti ivanti_cloud_services_appliance.

How to fix it

CISA required action: As Ivanti CSA has reached End-of-Life status, users are urged to remove CSA 4.6.x from service or upgrade to the 5.0.x line of supported solutions, as future vulnerabilities on the 4.6.x version of CSA are unlikely to receive future security updates.
