Assigner: ProgressSoftware
Reserved: 24.06.2026 Published: 22.07.2026 Updated: 22.07.2026

In Progress® Telerik® UI for AJAX prior to v2026.2.708, when Telerik.Upload.ConfigurationHashKey is absent and machineKey is not explicitly configured, upload metadata integrity protection may fall back to a predictable default key, enabling attackers to forge protected upload metadata and unlock further exploit chains.
