Added to CISA KEV 2025-06-03 · exploited in the wild for 481 days
CVSS 8.6 HIGH. The score is a summary; these three components are the part that decides whether something scanning the internet can use it.
| Attack vector | localrequires local access to the machine |
|---|---|
| Privileges required | noneneeds no credentials at all |
| User interaction | requiredneeds a user to click, load or submit something first |

This describes the vulnerability. It says nothing about whether your systems run it.
EPSS puts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.0046, which places it in the upper half of all tracked CVEs. The percentile is the more useful half: 0.18 in absolute terms sounds low until you know most of the internet-facing software in the world scores under that.
