CVE-2024-33500 describes a role elevation vulnerability discovered in Mendix Applications. This flaw allows users with role management capabilities to potentially escalate the access rights of other users within the application. The vulnerability impacts Mendix Applications versions 9.3.0 through 10.11.0, Mendix 10.6 (prior to version 10.6.9), and Mendix 9 (versions 9.3.0 up to 9.24.22). A fix is available in version 10.11.0.
Successful exploitation of CVE-2024-33500 could lead to significant unauthorized access and control within a Mendix application. An attacker who can guess the ID of a target role with elevated permissions could gain access to sensitive data, modify application functionality, or even compromise the entire application environment. The impact is particularly severe in applications where roles are used to control access to critical business processes or sensitive data. This vulnerability highlights the importance of robust role-based access control and secure coding practices within Mendix applications.
CVE-2024-33500 was publicly disclosed on June 11, 2024. Currently, there are no publicly available proof-of-concept exploits. The EPSS score is pending evaluation. While no active exploitation campaigns have been confirmed, the ease of exploitation (requiring only ID guessing) suggests a potential for future exploitation if the vulnerability remains unpatched.
Organizations deploying Mendix Applications within versions 9.3.0–V10.11.0, V10.6 (all < V10.6.9), and V9 (all >= V9.3.0 < V9.24.22) are at risk. Specifically, environments with loosely defined role management policies or those where multiple users have the ability to modify role assignments are particularly vulnerable. Shared hosting environments utilizing Mendix Applications should also be assessed.

The primary mitigation for CVE-2024-33500 is to upgrade Mendix Applications to version 10.11.0 or later. Prior to upgrading, it is crucial to thoroughly test the upgrade process in a non-production environment to ensure compatibility and avoid application disruptions. If an immediate upgrade is not feasible, consider implementing stricter role management controls, such as limiting the number of users with role management privileges and regularly auditing role assignments. Additionally, review and harden application code to prevent unintended access elevation.
Actualice Mendix Applications a la versión 10.11.0 o superior, o a la versión 10.6.9 o superior si está utilizando la versión 10.6, o a la versión 9.24.22 o superior si está utilizando la versión 9. Esto corrige la vulnerabilidad de elevación de privilegios. Consulte el aviso de seguridad de Siemens para obtener más detalles.
