CVE-2026-89068 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2026-89068: Missing critical step in authentication vulnerability in Progress MOVEit Transfer (LDAP module). This issue affects MOVEit Transfer: before 2025.1.6 and from 2026.0.0 before 2026.0.4.

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2026-89068

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2026-89068 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2026-89068

CVE-2026-89068 presents a challenge to exploit due to its high attack complexity, but the absence of privilege requirements still makes it a viable target for skilled attackers. A thorough security review is advised.

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2026-89068, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.

Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2026-89068, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.

Confidentiality: High Exploiting CVE-2026-89068 can result in unauthorized access to sensitive data, severely compromising data privacy.

Integrity: High CVE-2026-89068 could allow unauthorized modifications to data, potentially affecting system reliability and trust.

Availability: High CVE-2026-89068 can disrupt system operations, potentially causing complete denial of service (DoS).
