CVE-2026-4670
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 · uneditedAuthentication bypass by primary weakness vulnerability in Progress Software MOVEit Automation allows Authentication Bypass. This issue affects MOVEit Automation: from 2025.0.0 before 2025.0.9, from 2024.0.0 before 2024.1.8, versions prior to 2024.0.0.
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 confidenceThis is a critical authentication bypass vulnerability in Progress Software MOVEit Automation. Attackers can exploit this flaw to bypass authentication mechanisms and gain unauthorized access to the MOVEit Automation system without valid credentials. The vulnerability stems from a primary weakness in the authentication implementation.

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 checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Locate installed MOVEit Automation versionAccess the MOVEit Automation admin interface and navigate to the About or System Information page, or check the installation directory for version metadata filesAffected if The displayed version number is lower than 2024.1.8, or is 2025.0.0 through 2025.1.4 inclusive
-
Compare version against affected rangesIf you cannot access the admin interface, use command-line tools or check installation logs to retrieve the exact version string (for example: "2025.0.4" or "2024.1.5")Affected if Version falls into < 2024.1.8 OR (>= 2025.0.0 AND < 2025.1.5)
-
Verify authentication mechanism exposureConfirm the MOVEit Automation web interface is accessible from network locations where attackers could send authentication requestsAffected if The login/authentication endpoint is exposed to untrusted networks without additional network-level restrictions
You are affected if your installed MOVEit Automation version is below 2024.1.8, or is between 2025.0.0 and 2025.1.4 inclusive.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped2024.1.82025.1.5
Immediately upgrade MOVEit Automation to version 2025.0.9 or later, or 2024.1.8 or later. If running versions prior to 2024.0.0, upgrade to a supported patched version. Apply as a high-priority security update given the critical severity and potential for complete system compromise.
2024.1.8 (or 2025.0.9 or 2025.1.5 depending on your release track)
- 1. Identify the current installed version of MOVEit Automation
- 2. For versions 2024.0.0 through 2024.1.7: Upgrade to version 2024.1.8 or later
- 3. For versions 2025.0.0 through 2025.0.8: Upgrade to version 2025.0.9 or later
- 4. For versions 2025.1.0 through 2025.1.4: Upgrade to version 2025.1.5 or later
- 5. For versions prior to 2024.0.0: Upgrade to version 2024.1.8 or later
- 6. After upgrade, verify the MOVEit Automation instance is running the patched version
- 7. Test authentication functionality to confirm the vulnerability is resolved
