What is CVE-2024-13872?

The Bitdefender Box has a vulnerability that results from using the insecure HTTP protocol for downloading essential assets for updates and daemon restarts. This flaw allows remote attackers to exploit the API method /set_temp_token to execute man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks. By intercepting these updates, attackers can inject malicious responses, which could lead to remote code execution through compromised daemons using affected updates. This vulnerability poses a significant risk to the security and integrity of the affected devices.
