Progress Sitefinity 4.0 – 14.4.8143
Raw vector
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:NCVSS and EPSS are reproduced from their sources (NVD, FIRST EPSS). Risk Priority is our own derived reading, not an NVD score.
Summary
CVE-2024-11627 is a medium-severity Insufficient Session Expiration (CWE-613) vulnerability in Progress Sitefinity. Its CVSS base score is 6.8 (Medium).
Operationally, exploitation aligns with the MITRE ATT&CK technique Data Obfuscation (T1001); ranked at the 24th percentile by exploit likelihood (below the median); it is not currently listed in the CISA KEV catalog.
The strongest mitigations our analysis identified map to AC-12 (Session Termination) — see the control section below for these in your framework.

CVE-2024-11627 is an Insufficient Session Expiration vulnerability in Progress Sitefinity that enables Session Fixation. The issue affects multiple version ranges of Sitefinity, specifically from 4.0 through 14.4.8142, from 15.0.8200 through 15.0.8229, from 15.1.8300 through 15.1.8327, and from 15.2.8400 through 15.2.8421. It is associated with CWE-613 and carries a CVSS v3.1 base score of 6.8.
The vulnerability can be exploited over the network (AV:N) by attackers requiring no privileges (PR:N), though it involves high attack complexity (AC:H) and user interaction (UI:R) with no change in scope (S:U). Successful exploitation results in high impacts to confidentiality (C:H) and integrity (I:H), but no availability impact (A:N), potentially allowing attackers to fixate a session ID and hijack authenticated user sessions after inducing login.

Mitigating Controls
Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI
AC-12 directly requires automatic session termination after a defined period, structurally preventing reuse of expired session identifiers.

Derived directly from the weakness types (CWEs) cited in the NVD entry via our AI-authored CWE→CSF cross-walk (authority under review) — links open the control.
Credential lifecycle management directly includes enforcing session expiration to prevent reuse.
Authentication mechanisms can incorporate session timeout checks but do not inherently address expiration policy.
Authorization policy enforcement and review covers terminating stale sessions to limit access scope.
