Insufficient Session Expiration vulnerability in Progress MOVEit Transfer.
CVE-2026-89073 is a critical-severity vulnerability in MOVEit Transfer from Progress Software, with a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8 out of 10. It can be exploited remotely over the network by an unauthenticated attacker, without any action from a user. The record lists versions 2025.1.6, 2026.0.4 as the first without the flaw, so updating MOVEit Transfer to one of those releases or later removes the exposure. There is no confirmed exploitation so far. EPSS estimates a 0.4% chance of exploitation within 30 days, which is low compared with other CVEs.
Critical severity: a successful attack would have severe impact.
What to do
- Update MOVEit Transfer to 2025.1.6 or 2026.0.4, whichever matches your release line, or a later version.
- Read the advisory on community.progress.com for workarounds and exact fixed builds.
