This technical guide presents an analysis of the MOVEit Three-Year Vulnerability Record, detailing the critical vulnerabilities identified in the MOVEit Transfer platform from 2023 to 2026. It outlines the significant SQL injection vulnerability (CVE-2023-34362) that led to a massive supply-chain data breach, affecting over 2,700 organizations and approximately 96 million individuals. The document lists at least 11 disclosed CVEs, with five rated as critical, emphasizing the ongoing exploitation of the platform. The guide explains the structural vulnerabilities inherent in the architecture of MOVEit, which combines an internet-facing web application with customer-managed infrastructure and sensitive data storage. It discusses the regulatory implications of these vulnerabilities, including potential violations of standards such as HIPAA and GDPR. The analysis concludes by suggesting that merely changing MFT vendors does not address the underlying architectural issues, advocating for a more secure model that consolidates data exchange capabilities.
