| CVE-2024-9537 | Critical Third-Party Component Flaw in ScienceLogic SL1 Exploited in the Wild ScienceLogic SL1 (formerly EM7), an enterprise IT infrastructure monitoring platform, is affected by a critical vulnerability (CVSS 4.0: 9.3) in an unspecified third-party component packaged with the product; technical details have not been publicly disclosed. The severity vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N) indicates it can be triggered remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker with no user interaction or special conditions. High impacts on confidentiality, integrity, and availability suggest full compromise of the SL1 appliance, giving attackers a foothold in the monitored environment. Any organization running SL1 versions prior to 12.1.3, 12.2.3, or 12.3 — including older 10.1.x through 11.3.x lines — is affected. CISA added the flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2024-10-21 following reports of active zero-day exploitation; no public proof-of-concept is known, and whether ransomware groups are leveraging it is unconfirmed. Do: Upgrade to SL1 12.1.3+, 12.2.3+, or 12.3+, or apply ScienceLogic's remediations for the 10.1.x–11.3.x lines; per CISA's KEV required action, apply vendor mitigations promptly or discontinue use if mitigations are unavailable. Inventory your SL1 deployments (including appliances managed on behalf of MSP customers), restrict internet exposure of SL1 management interfaces pending patching, and monitor for exploitation activity; ransomware association is not yet confirmed. | 9.3 | 4% | KEV |

U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) adds ScienceLogic SL1 flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) added the ScienceLogic SL1 flaw CVE-2024-9537 (CVSS v4 score: 9.3) to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog.
ScienceLogic SL1 contains a vulnerability related to a third-party component. It has been fixed in versions 12.1.3+, 12.2.3+, and 12.3+, with patches available for older versions back to 10.1.x.
“ScienceLogic SL1 (formerly EM7) is affected by an unspecified vulnerability involving an unspecified third-party component packaged with SL1. The vulnerability is addressed in SL1 versions 12.1.3+, 12.2.3+, and 12.3+.” reads the advisory. “Remediations have been made available for all SL1 versions back to version lines 10.1.x, 10.2.x, 11.1.x, 11.2.x, and 11.3.x.”
On September 24, 2024, cloud hosting provider Rackspace reported an issue with its ScienceLogic EM7 monitoring tool. A threat actor exploited a zero-day vulnerability in a non-Rackspace utility bundled with the ScienceLogic application. The security breach exposed low-sensitivity performance monitoring data, including customer usernames, account info, and encrypted internal credentials. Rackspace helped ScienceLogic address this issue. The patch is now available to all customers, and the company notified the impacted customers.
“During Rackspace and ScienceLogic’s collaboration to develop a remediation, it was discovered that the undocumented zero-day vulnerability was a remote code execution flaw in a third-party utility not developed by ScienceLogic, but included with the SL1 package.” reads the report published by ArticWolf. “ScienceLogic has also chosen not to disclose the name of the third-party utility to avoid giving potential threat actors any insights, noting that the utility may be used in other products as well. “
According to Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 22-01: Reducing the Significant Risk of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities, FCEB agencies have to address the identified vulnerabilities by the due date to protect their networks against attacks exploiting the flaws in the catalog.
Experts also recommend private organizations review the Catalog and address the vulnerabilities in their infrastructure.
CISA orders federal agencies to fix this vulnerability by November 11, 2024.
