PROGRESS Software has reported a credible external security threat to its ShareFile Storage Zone Controllers, prompting the company to warn users and temporarily disable access to accounts. Although there have been no confirmed instances of unauthorized access, users are urged to turn off their Storage Zone Controllers as a precaution. Progress is conducting investigations to assess the threat, but further details about the nature of the threat have not been disclosed.
Some ShareFile users expressed concerns over a lack of updates, hinting at a potential link between the incident and recently disclosed vulnerabilities or new exploits. As of July 12, Progress indicated that access has been restored to affected users but with ongoing restrictions as investigations continue.
