DescriptionNVD

Relative path traversal vulnerability in Progress MOVEit Transfer (Admin Settings module).

This issue affects MOVEit Transfer: before 2025.0.7, from 2025.1.0 before 2025.1.3.

AnalysisAI

Path traversal in Progress MOVEit Transfer's Admin Settings module (versions before 2025.0.7 and 2025.1.0 before 2025.1.3) lets remote attackers supply relative '../' sequences to read files outside the intended directory, exposing sensitive configuration or system data. The CVSS 3.1 vector scores it 7.5 with confidentiality-only impact (C:H/I:N/A:N) and no listed authentication (PR:N), though the 'Admin Settings' location warrants scrutiny of that claim. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation The attacker must be able to reach the MOVEit Transfer web application's Admin Settings module and inject relative traversal sequences into the vulnerable path-handling parameter; NVD's PR:N implies no authentication is required, but the flaw's location in the Admin Settings module strongly suggests an administrative context, so treat 'unauthenticated reachability' as unconfirmed and verify with Progress. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The signals are largely consistent and point to moderate rather than urgent priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker who can reach the MOVEit Transfer administration web interface sends a crafted request to an Admin Settings endpoint containing relative path traversal sequences (e.g., '../../') to escape the intended directory and read arbitrary files such as configuration files or stored secrets. Because AC:L and no user interaction are required, the request is trivial to automate against a reachable instance; no public exploit is identified at this time, and if the endpoint truly requires admin authentication the attacker must first obtain valid credentials.
Remediation Patch available per vendor advisory: upgrade MOVEit Transfer to 2025.0.7 or later on the 2025.0.x branch, or to 2025.1.3 or later on the 2025.1.x branch, as documented in the Progress fixed-issues release notes (https://docs.progress.com/bundle/moveit-transfer-release-notes-2026/page/Fixed-Issues-in-2026.html). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
