Security News > 2023 > December > Ivanti releases patches for 13 critical Avalanche RCE flaws
Ivanti has released security updates to fix 13 critical security vulnerabilities in the company's Avalanche enterprise mobile device management solution.
As Ivanti explained on Wednesday, these security flaws are due to WLAvalancheService stack or heap-based buffer overflow weaknesses reported by Tenable security researchers and Trend Micro's Zero Day Initiative.
"To address the security vulnerabilities [.], it is highly recommended to download the Avalanche installer and update to the latest Avalanche 6.4.2. These vulnerabilities impact all supported versions of the products - Avalanche versions 6.3.1 and above. Older versions/releases are also at risk."
In August, Ivanti fixed two other critical Avalanche buffer overflows tracked collectively as CVE-2023-32560 that could lead to crashes and arbitrary code execution following successful exploitation.
