Should you act?

Exploited: patch now if you run it

CISA has confirmed exploitation in the wild. This signal is computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS data; it is not an editorial verdict.

  • Yes, if you run Oracle Agile Product Lifecycle Management (PLM). CISA added this CVE to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog on 2025-02-24, which means there is reliable evidence of exploitation in the wild. US federal agencies must remediate by 2025-03-17; treat that as the outer limit, not the target.
  • EPSS 3.9%, percentile 90: FIRST’s model estimates a 3.9% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 90% of all scored CVEs (elevated). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
  • Needs an account (low (any account)). Exposure depends on who can log in.
