Archived Security Snapshot

Critical vulnerabilities, curated daily for security professionals

Archived Security Brief

Yesterday's CVE disclosures included just 1 critical vulnerability, a 95% decrease from the prior day's 20 critical issues. High-priority vulnerabilities totaled 95, representing a modest 5% decline from 100 the previous day. Seven actively exploited vulnerabilities were added to the KEV catalog, including issues affecting Google Chromium, Apple products, MongoDB, Gladinet CentreStack, and ASUS Live Update utilities. The lone critical vulnerability CVE-2025-69288 (CVSS 9.1) affects Titra, an open source project time tracking tool, while legacy issues CVE-2018-4063 in Sierra Wireless AirLink and CVE-2023-52163 in Digiever DS-2105 Pro continue to see active exploitation. Patch availability stands at 0%, indicating organizations should implement compensating controls and monitor vendor advisories closely.

  • 1 critical vulnerability disclosed, down 95% from 20 the prior day
  • 95 high-priority CVEs identified, a 5% decrease from the previous day
  • 7 actively exploited vulnerabilities affecting Google, Apple, MongoDB, Gladinet, ASUS, Sierra Wireless, and Digiever
  • 0% patch availability at time of disclosure requires compensating controls
  • Legacy vulnerabilities from 2018 and 2023 remain under active exploitation

Immediate action: Organizations using Google Chromium, Apple products, MongoDB, Gladinet CentreStack/Triofox, ASUS Live Update, Sierra Wireless AirLink, or Digiever devices should prioritize reviewing exposure to the 7 actively exploited vulnerabilities. With no patches currently available, implement network segmentation, access restrictions, and enhanced monitoring while awaiting vendor remediation guidance.

How to read this brief

CVSS score (e.g. 9.1) — severity from 0–10. Red marks critical (9+), orange high (7–8.9).

Exploitability — how hard the flaw is to attack, read from the CVSS vector:

  • Network / Adjacent / Local / Physical — how close an attacker must get. Network means reachable over the internet.
  • No / Low / High privileges — the access they need first. No privileges means no login required.
  • No interaction / User interaction — whether a victim has to do something (open a file, click a link). No interaction means fully automatable.

The lower the bar on all three, the easier to exploit at scale — “Network · No privileges · No interaction” is the worst case: hit from anywhere, no credentials, no victim action.

Actively exploited — confirmed under attack in the wild (CISA’s Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog). Prioritize these regardless of score.

EPSS · Nth percentile — FIRST.org’s estimated chance a flaw is exploited within 30 days. We flag it only in the top 10% — a statistical signal it’s unusually likely to be targeted, separate from whether attacks are confirmed.
