Remediation

Review the recorded instructions. Guidance may be a workaround rather than a fixed version.
What this means
The Progress Software Fiddler Download and Setup Skill is affected by missing integrity verification, allowing an attacker to compromise a release component. This may enable code execution with administrator or root privileges on Linux, macOS, and Windows. A local process can replace the staged package on macOS.

What to do
Compare your installed product and version with the affected versions above. A matching product name alone does not confirm exposure.
Do not run the affected skill version. Install Fiddler manually from the official distribution source, verify the downloaded artifact's publisher signature and available checksum, and on macOS use a per-user DMG installation without administrator privileges.

Original source description
Read the full publisher description
Missing integrity verification in the Progress Software Fiddler Download and Setup Skill on Linux, macOS, and Windows which allows an attacker to compromise or influence a release component and execute attacker-controlled code when a user runs the skill. On macOS, the skill stages the package at a predictable path and installs it with administrator privileges, which may allow code execution with root privileges after user approval. A local process may also replace the staged macOS package while the skill waits for approval.
