Read the original description
Remote code execution vulnerabilities exist in the Netwrix Auditor User Activity Video Recording component affecting both the Netwrix Auditor server and agents installed on monitored systems. The remote code execution vulnerabilities exist within the underlying protocol used by the component, and potentially allow an unauthenticated remote attacker to execute arbitrary code as the NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM user on affected systems, including on systems Netwrix Auditor monitors.

Questions about CVE-2022-31199
What does this mean?
The User Activity Video Recording component leaves a .NET remoting port unsecured, which lets an attacker run arbitrary code with the privileges of the affected service. The advisory notes this can be NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM and may lead to compromise of the Active Directory domain.Source: bishopfox.com
Am I affected, and how do I check?
The advisory covers all supported Netwrix Auditor versions prior to 10.5. The issue requires the unsecured .NET remoting port to be accessible on TCP port 9004, so a reader can check their installed version and whether TCP 9004 is reachable on the Auditor host.Source: bishopfox.com
What should I do about it?
Update Netwrix Auditor to version 10.5.Source: bishopfox.com
Is it being exploited?
Yes. CISA added it to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2023-07-11, which means it has evidence of attacks. No public exploit code is tracked.Source: cisa.gov, cve.now feed data
