Cleo Harmony, VLTrader, and LexiCom, which are managed file transfer products, contain an unrestricted file upload and download vulnerability that can lead to remote code execution with elevated privileges.
Exploitation status
- CISA has confirmed this is being exploited in the wild. That is an observation of real attacks, not a prediction.
- It is known to have been used in ransomware campaigns.
- US federal civilian agencies are required to remediate it by 2025-01-03. That deadline does not bind private companies, but it is a reasonable benchmark for how urgently CISA views it.
Required action
Apply mitigations per vendor instructions or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.
