Published: Translated: NVD NIST

Summary

CVE-2026-4048 is a remote code execution vulnerability via OS command injection in the user interface of Progress ADC products. It allows an authenticated attacker with 'All' permissions to execute arbitrary commands on the LoadMaster appliance by exploiting unsanitized input in a WAF rule file during the file upload process.

Risk Assessment

The risk to the organization involves the potential for remote execution of arbitrary code by an attacker, which could lead to system compromise and data loss. An attacker with full permissions can introduce malicious commands, posing a serious threat to the security of the infrastructure.

Recommendation

It is recommended to immediately update Progress ADC products to the latest version to mitigate this vulnerability. Additionally, an audit of WAF rules should be conducted, and file upload access should be restricted to trusted users.
