Summary
Missing authorization in Ivanti Connect Secure before 22.7R2.9 or 22.8R2, Ivanti Policy Secure before 22.7R1.6, Ivanti ZTA Gateway before 2.8R2.3-723, and Ivanti Neurons for Secure Access before 22.8R1.4 (fix deployed 02-Aug-2025) allows a remote authenticated attacker with read-only admin privileges to configure authentication-related settings.
Risk Assessment
An attacker with read-only privileges can modify authentication settings, potentially leading to access control bypass or privilege escalation. The risk affects environments with limited-privilege administrative accounts.
Recommendation
Upgrade the relevant Ivanti products to the specified versions or later. Until then, limit the number of read-only administrative accounts and monitor changes to authentication configuration.
