CVE-2023-35081 is a path traversal vulnerability in Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile (EPMM), formerly MobileIron Core, affecting versions 11.10.x prior to 11.10.0.3, 11.9.x prior to 11.9.1.2, and 11.8.x prior to 11.8.1.2; older releases are also reported to be at risk. The flaw allows an authenticated EPMM administrator to write arbitrary files onto the appliance. Reporting on observed exploitation indicates the issue was used to place server-side Java artifacts, including JSP and compiled Java class content, onto the system, where they could then be loaded by the appliance’s Apache Tomcat environment. The vulnerability has also been described as enabling arbitrary file overwrite on the appliance through directory traversal, and has been observed chained with CVE-2023-35078 to bypass practical access restrictions and facilitate follow-on code execution and persistence.
