IdentityIQ: Improper Handling of File Names that Identify Virtual Resources
CVE-2024-10905 is a critical-severity improper handling of file names that identify virtual resources vulnerability in IdentityIQ from SailPoint Technologies, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists versions 8.2p8, 8.3p5, 8.4p2 as the first without the flaw, so updating IdentityIQ to one of those releases or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.95% chance of exploitation within 30 days, higher than 62% of scored CVEs.
Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.
