CVSS 9.8 Critical EPSS 2.0% · p81
Should you act?
Critical and remotely reachable
No known exploitation yet, but it is network-reachable without credentials. This signal is computed from CISA KEV, EPSS and CVSS data; it is not an editorial verdict.
- Not in CISA KEV, but CISA’s SSVC assessment records a public proof-of-concept, so attack code exists.
- EPSS 2.0%, percentile 81: FIRST’s model estimates a 2.0% chance of exploitation activity in the next 30 days, higher than 81% of all scored CVEs (elevated). EPSS is a probability, not a verdict.
- Remotely reachable with no login and no user interaction. If the vulnerable service is exposed to the internet, prioritize it.
- Only applies if your dependency tree includes
stimulsoft-dashboards-js(npm) < 2024.1.3, fixed in 2024.1.3. Check your lockfile, including transitive dependencies.
