CVE-2026-8037: OS Command Injection Remote Code Execution Vulnerability in Progress LoadMaster, ECS Connection Manager, Object Scale Connection Manager & MOVEit WAF
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Now (action score 99/100)
- CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild (Aug 7, 2026). Remediation deadline for US federal agencies: Aug 10, 2026.
- A ready-made attack module is public (Nuclei); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 99.8% (FIRST EPSS); higher than 99.9% of all records.
- This probability rose by 22 points in the last 7 days.
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to the record, no fixed version is available yet.
Patch today or shut off access. Until a fix is released, restrict access to the affected component and follow the vendor's advisory.
