Archived Security Brief

This brief covers 15 actively exploited vulnerabilities tracked by CISA KEV, plus 22 additional critical and 95 high-priority issues requiring attention.

  • 15 CISA KEV vulnerabilities with active exploitation in the wild
  • 126 total vulnerabilities disclosed in last 24 hours
  • 48 late disclosures (old CVE IDs published recently)
  • WordPress ecosystem significantly impacted: 8 plugin/theme vulnerabilities
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.
