Take stock
- Do you run any of these? Microsoft Windows, Sophos Web Appliance, Oracle Fusion Middleware. They are being exploited in the wild (CISA KEV). Patch or mitigate if you do; CISA’s federal deadline is 2023-12-07.
- PyPI: 6 critical advisories (
ray,mlflow). Check withpip-audit (or: pip show <package>). - Maven: 2 critical advisories (
com.liferay.portal:release.portal.bom,ai.h2o:h2o-core). Check withmvn dependency:tree -Dincludes=<groupId>:<artifactId>. - None of it touches your stack? Then there is nothing to do today. That is a result, not a failure to read carefully.
