How the CVE Works
CVE-2025-4428 is a critical remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability in Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile (EPMM) versions 12.5.0.0 and prior. The flaw resides in the API component, where improper input validation allows authenticated attackers to craft malicious API requests. By injecting arbitrary commands, an attacker can bypass security controls and execute code with elevated privileges on the target system. The vulnerability stems from insufficient sanitization of user-supplied input, leading to command injection. Successful exploitation grants full control over the affected system, enabling data theft, lateral movement, or further network compromise.
