CVE-2025-0282 was patched this week, but exploited since December.
Zero-day exploitation of an Ivanti vulnerability has been detected.
Ivanti disclosed two vulnerabilities - CVE-2025-0282 and CVE-2025-0283 - this week, but analysis by Google Mandiant has found that CVE-2025-0282 has been exploited in the wild since mid-December 2024.
CVE-2025-0282 is an unauthenticated stack-based buffer overflow, and successful exploitation could result in unauthenticated remote code execution, leading to potential downstream compromise of a victim network.
Mandiant has been working closely with Ivanti and any affected customers, government partners, and security vendors to address these issues. As a result of their investigation, Ivanti has released patches for the vulnerabilities exploited in this campaign and Ivanti customers are urged to follow the actions in the
Security Advisory to secure their systems as soon as possible.
