An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-6218 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Progress Software Corporation MOVEit Transfer. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-6218/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-6218/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-6218","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-6218/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-6218","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-5743-p3xc-xmhv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Managed File Transfer","requires_auth":"high_privilege","summary":"A group administrator can elevate a member's permissions to organization administrator, allowing unauthorized privilege escalation in MOVEit Transfer.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"privilege_escalation"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"ProgressSoftware","cpe":[{"product":"moveit_transfer","vendor":"progress"}],"cvss":{"score":7.2,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-269","name":"Improper Privilege Management"}],"description":"In Progress MOVEit Transfer versions released before 2022.0.9 (14.0.9), 2022.1.10 (14.1.10), 2023.0.7 (15.0.7), a privilege escalation path associated with group administrators has been identified.  It is possible for a group administrator to elevate a group members permissions to the role of an organization administrator.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"MOVEit Transfer Group Admin Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2023-6218","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"privilege_escalation","year":"2023"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"BookingPress \u003c= 1.0.76 - Authenticated (Administrator+) Arbitrary File Upload","id":"CVE-2023-6219"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"MOVEit Transfer XSS via MOVEit Gateway","id":"CVE-2023-6217"},"products":["MOVEit Transfer"],"published":"2023-11-29","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-35708","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-16"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2021-38159","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2021-08-07"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"MOVEit Transfer Authentication Bypass Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-5806","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-06-25"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-36934","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-07-05"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"SQL injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-35036","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-06-12"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"MOVEit Transfer Service Directory Writable by Local Users Enables Local Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2026-87093","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"MOVEit Transfer Secure Messaging Authentication Bypass","id":"CVE-2026-89067","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-10-14"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-02","vendors":["Progress Software Corporation"]},"summary":"A group administrator can elevate a member's permissions to organization administrator, allowing unauthorized privilege escalation in MOVEit Transfer.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-6218/"}
