CVE-2024-13980 — H3C Intelligent Management Center (IMC) security vulnerability
H3C Intelligent Management Center (IMC) versions up to and including E0632H07 contains a remote command execution vulnerability in the /byod/index.xhtml endpoint. Improper handling of JSF ViewState allows unauthenticated attackers to craft POST requests with forged javax.faces.ViewState parameters, potentially leading to arbitrary command execution. This flaw does not require authentication and may be exploited without session cookies. An affected version range is undefined. Exploitation evidence was first observed by the Shadowserver Foundation on 2024-08-28 UTC.

Matched remediation archetype
Unsafe deserialization and object reconstruction
This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.
Check exposure
- Inventory serialization formats accepted from requests, queues, caches, files, cookies, and cross-service messages.
- Trace whether untrusted input can select classes, types, callbacks, constructors, or object hooks during decoding.
- Identify signing, schema validation, trust-boundary, and compatibility settings for each decoder.
Remediate safely
- Replace native object deserialization with a data-only format and explicit schema validation.
- If replacement is not immediate, use a safe decoder with a minimal type allowlist and disable polymorphic or executable hooks.
- Update the affected library and add inert tests for unknown types, extra fields, malformed nesting, and unsigned data.
