AJ-Report: Authentication Bypass Using an Alternate Path or Channel
CVE-2024-7314 is a critical-severity authentication bypass using an alternate path or channel vulnerability in AJ-Report from Anji-plus, 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 version 1.4.1 as the first without the flaw, so updating AJ-Report to that release or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 51.7% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is in the top 1.03% of all scored CVEs.
Exploitation in the next 30 days is more likely than not, according to EPSS.
What to do
- Update AJ-Report to 1.4.1 or a later version.
- Update report to 1.4.1 or a later version.
- Until you can update, restrict network access to the affected service so it is not reachable from untrusted networks.
