Senserva AI Opinion for CVE-2024-38119

CVE-2024-38119 is a NAT remote code execution vulnerability, more dangerous than the NAT denial-of-service bugs beside it because it can yield code execution, at Critical 9.8 with a 71 percent EPSS score on Windows 10 1809 and Server 2019. A host performing NAT that is reachable by an attacker could be fully compromised. It is not in CISA KEV.

Do this: Prioritize this over the NAT crash-only bugs: patch RRAS and NAT-routing Server 2019 hosts first since this one enables code execution.
