Whatsup Gold, Observium and Offis vulnerabilities

Cisco Talos’ Vulnerability Research team recently disclosed three vulnerabilities in Observium, three vulnerabilities in Offis, and four vulnerabilities in Whatsup Gold.   

These vulnerabilities exist in Observium, a network observation and monitoring system; Offis DCMTK, a collection of libraries and applications implementing DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) standard formats; and WhatsUp Gold, an IT infrastructure management product.  

The vulnerabilities mentioned in this blog post have been patched by their respective vendors, all in adherence to Cisco’s third-party vulnerability disclosure policy.  

For Snort coverage that can detect the exploitation of these vulnerabilities, download the latest rule sets from Snort.org, and our latest Vulnerability Advisories are always posted on Talos Intelligence’s website.   

Observium Vulnerabilities  

Discovered by Marcin “Icewall” Noga.   

Two cross-site scripting vulnerabilities exist in Observium, which can lead to arbitrary JavaScript code execution, as well as one HTML code injection vulnerability. All three can be triggered by an authenticated user clicking a malicious link crafted by the attacker.  

Offis Vulnerabilities  

Discovered by Emmanuel Tacheau.   

Three vulnerabilities were found in the Offis DCMTK libraries that support the DICOM standard format. TALOS-2024-1957 (CVE-2024-28130) is an incorrect type conversion vulnerability that can lead to arbitrary code execution, and TALOS-2024-2121 (CVE-2024-52333) and TALOS-2024-2122 (CVE-2024-47796) are improper array index validation vulnerabilities that can lead to out-of-bounds write capabilities. All can be triggered with specially crafted malicious DICOM files.  

Whatsup Gold Vulnerabilities  

Discovered by Marcin “Icewall” Noga.   

Two Whatsup Gold vulnerabilities include a risk of information disclosure (TALOS-2024-1932 (CVE-2024-5017) and TALOS-2024-2089 (CVE-2024-12105)), which can be triggered by an attacker making an authenticated HTTP request. 

There is also a risk of disclosure of sensitive information (TALOS-2024-1933 (CVE-2024-5010)), and denial of service (TALOS-2024-1934 (CVE-2024-5011)). These two vulnerabilities can be triggered by an attacker making an unauthenticated HTTP request.
