NVD · unedited
CWE-20: Improper Input Validation in web services in Progress Sitefinity 14.1.x through 14.3.x, 14.4.x before 14.4.8152, 15.0.x before 15.0.8234, 15.1.x before 15.1.8335, 15.2.x before 15.2.8441, 15.3.x before 15.3.8531, and 15.4.x before 15.4.8630 allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to compromise the integrity and confidentiality of user accounts. Successful exploitation requires user interaction and a non-default site configuration.

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

Improper input validation (CWE-20) in Progress Sitefinity web services allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to compromise user account integrity and confidentiality. The vulnerability affects multiple version branches (14.1.x through 15.4.x) and requires both user interaction and a non-default site configuration for exploitation.

MitigationApply the vendor patches: upgrade to 14.4.8152, 15.0.8234, 15.1.8335, 15.2.8441, 15.3.8531, or 15.4.8630 and later. Review and harden non-default site configurations to reduce attack surface.

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. Confirm Sitefinity CMS installation
    Locate the Sitefinity installation directory or check for Telerik.Sitefinity assemblies in the web application's bin folder. Look for Sitefinity-specific DLLs or configuration files such as SitefinityWebApp.dll or Telerik.Sitefinity.*.dll
    Affected if Sitefinity CMS is not present in the environment
  2. Identify installed Sitefinity version
    Check the assembly version of Telerik.Sitefinity.dll in the bin directory, or look in the web.config or administration dashboard for the Sitefinity version number
    Affected if The installed version falls within any of these ranges: 14.1.7800 to 14.4.8151, 15.0.8200 to 15.0.8233, 15.1.8300 to 15.1.8334, 15.2.8400 to 15.2.8440, 15.3.8500 to 15.3.8530, or 15.4.8600 to 15.4.8629
  3. Verify if web services are accessible
    Check the web.config for enabled web service endpoints under the system.web.extensions or system.serviceModel sections. Attempt to access common Sitefinity web service URLs such as /Sitefinity/Services/ or any custom .svc endpoints exposed by the application
    Affected if Web service endpoints are exposed and reachable without authentication
  4. Check for non-default site configuration
    Review Sitefinity configuration files (Sitefinity/Configuration/ folder) and the administration settings for any custom or non-standard configurations, particularly around authentication, authorization, or module settings that deviate from default installations
    Affected if A non-default site configuration is present in addition to the vulnerable version and exposed web services

A user is affected if Sitefinity CMS is installed with a version within the affected ranges AND web services are exposed AND a non-default site configuration exists, since the CVE requires both web service access and non-default settings for exploitation.

Recommended fix High confidence

Sitefinity 15.4.8630 or later (latest stable 15.x release)

  1. 1. Back up the Sitefinity database and all site files before proceeding with any upgrade.
  2. 2. Review the Sitefinity upgrade documentation for your current version at community.progress.com.
  3. 3. Download the latest Sitefinity release (15.4.8630 or higher) from the Progress Customer Portal.
  4. 4. Test the upgrade in a staging environment first to verify compatibility with custom modules and configurations.
  5. 5. Execute the upgrade following Progress's standard upgrade procedure for your deployment type.
  6. 6. After upgrade, verify that all web services are functioning correctly and test the fix by confirming the input validation is properly enforced.
  7. 7. Monitor for any errors in the Sitefinity error logs after deployment.
Caveat Major version upgrades in Sitefinity may require testing of custom modules, templates, and integrations; review breaking changes in the release notes before upgrading
