Autodesk Fusion 360 <= 2704.1.53 MITM (adsk-sa-2026-0016)

high Nessus Plugin ID 347957

Synopsis

Autodesk Fusion 360 installed on the remote host is affected by a man-in-the-middle vulnerability.

Description

The version of Autodesk Fusion 360 installed on the remote host is less than or equal to 2704.1.53. It is, therefore, affected by a man-in-the-middle vulnerability:

- A maliciously crafted add-in, when installed and executed in Autodesk Fusion Desktop, can modify persistent network proxy settings without user notification or consent. A successful exploit may allow an attacker to redirect authenticated Fusion network traffic through an attacker-controlled proxy, potentially exposing sensitive information with the current user. (CVE-2026-85217)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to Autodesk Fusion 360 version 2705.1.11 or later.
