CVE-2026-104657

Missing Integrity Verification in Progress Software Fiddler Download & Setup Skill

Published Nov 6, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 7.5 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
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.

Remediation

Vendor Workaround

Do not run the affected skill version. Install Fiddler manually from the official distribution source, verify the downloaded artifact's publisher signature and available checksum, and on macOS use a per-user DMG installation without administrator privileges.
