About Progress Sitefinity
CVE-2026-7195 affects Progress Sitefinity, a product from Progress. Before acting, confirm where Progress Sitefinity runs in your estate, who owns it and whether it is reachable from the internet, because exposure decides real risk more than the score alone.
What the flaw is
In plain terms: 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.
The weakness class is Improper Input Validation. The software trusts input without checking it is safe.
Based on its CVSS vector, the flaw can be reached over the network, needs no login, and relies on a user taking an action. Apply the vendor fix and confirm exposure on internet facing and business critical assets first.
