CVE-2025-11493

The ConnectWise Automate Agent does not fully verify the authenticity of files downloaded from the server, such as updates, dependencies, and integrations. This creates a risk where an on-path attacker could perform a man-in-the-middle attack and substitute malicious files for legitimate ones by impersonating a legitimate server. This risk is mitigated when HTTPS is enforced and is related to CVE-2025-11492.

Summary		(es) El Agente de ConnectWise Automate no verifica completamente la autenticidad de los archivos descargados del servidor, como actualizaciones, dependencias e integraciones. Esto crea un riesgo donde un atacante en la ruta podría realizar un ataque man-in-the-middle y sustituir archivos maliciosos por legítimos suplantando la identidad de un servidor legítimo. Este riesgo se mitiga cuando se aplica HTTPS y está relacionado con CVE-2025-11492.
