Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Improper neutralization of input during web page generation ('cross-site scripting') vulnerability in Progress MOVEit Transfer (Ad Hoc module). This issue affects MOVEit Transfer: from 2026.0.0 before 2026.0.1, from 2025.1.0 before 2025.1.4, from 2025.0.0 before 2025.0.8.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in MOVEit Transfer's Ad Hoc module allows injection of malicious scripts through unsanitized user input that gets rendered in web pages without proper encoding or validation.

MitigationApply the vendor-provided patches: upgrade to 2026.0.1, 2025.1.4, or 2025.0.8 (or later) to remediate the XSS vulnerability.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed MOVEit Transfer version
    Log into the MOVEit Transfer admin console and navigate to Help > About to view the exact version number, or query the version via the administrative interface or installation files if you have server access
    Affected if The installed version is <= 2024.1.8, OR >= 2025.0.0 and < 2025.0.8, OR >= 2025.1.0 and < 2025.1.4, OR equals 2026.0.0
  2. Confirm Ad Hoc module is enabled
    In the MOVEit Transfer admin interface, go to System Settings or Modules configuration and check whether the Ad Hoc module is currently enabled and available to users
    Affected if The Ad Hoc module is enabled and users can access it to create or share ad hoc transfers
  3. Verify web interface accessibility
    Confirm that the MOVEit Transfer web interface is accessible to users by checking IIS site bindings, internal network access, or reviewing which user groups have login permissions
    Affected if The MOVEit Transfer web interface is reachable by end users who can access the Ad Hoc module

You are affected if MOVEit Transfer runs an affected version AND the Ad Hoc module is enabled and accessible through the web interface, allowing unsanitized user input to be rendered in web pages.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 2025.0.8 / 2025.1.4 or later
Fixed in 2025.0.82025.1.4
Interim mitigation

Apply the vendor-provided patches: upgrade to 2026.0.1, 2025.1.4, or 2025.0.8 (or later) to remediate the XSS vulnerability.

Recommended fix High confidence

2026.0.1 (or 2025.1.4 or 2025.0.8 depending on current version)

  1. 1. Identify current MOVEit Transfer version by checking the application's help/about section or installation directory
  2. 2. Determine the appropriate upgrade target based on current version: if <=2024.1.8 upgrade to 2025.0.8 or later; if >=2025.0.0 and <2025.0.8 upgrade to 2025.0.8; if >=2025.1.0 and <2025.1.4 upgrade to 2025.1.4; if 2026.0.0 upgrade to 2026.0.1
  3. 3. Download the corresponding upgrade package from community.progress.com or official Progress downloads
  4. 4. Review upgrade documentation and release notes for pre-installation requirements
  5. 5. Perform a backup of the MOVEit Transfer database and configuration
  6. 6. Execute the upgrade following Progress MOVEit upgrade procedures
  7. 7. Verify the upgrade was successful and the Ad Hoc module functions correctly
Caveat Standard MOVEit upgrade procedures apply; test in non-production environment first
