Sourced from NVD, reflects how severe this vulnerability is if exploited, not whether it has been. Every advisory on this page is already a CISA-confirmed active exploitation case regardless of its CVSS score.
EPSS, exploit probability
Medium1.8%
estimated chance of real-world exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 78.0% of every CVE FIRST.org scores
Refreshed 10/28/2026, via FIRST.org's EPSS model, not CVSS, this measures likelihood of exploitation, not how severe it would be.
