CVE-2024-5805Network attack vector

Unauthenticated SFTP access

Published Jun 25, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024

Improper authentication in Progress MOVEit Gateway 2024.0.0 allows remote attackers to bypass SFTP authentication over the network. Progress identifies the SFTP module as the affected locus but has not published the specific validation error that accepts untrusted authentication input. An exposed SFTP service is required, and successful exploitation grants unauthorized gateway access with confidentiality and integrity impact.
